“Self employed and loving it!”

……Is the Facebook status of a colleague of mine. I have to say that I concur.
I never envisioned being my own boss, but I suppose it was inevitable given my intolerance of systems that do not work and my level of impatience. when I desire change I desire it now and only a small enterprise can have such fluidity that it can move in the moment to meet the needs of its client base and its boss!
So I suppose the thought in here is how can we design our careers so that they play to our strengths?
It is my innate ‘rescuer’ that has been my undoing in the past, that has become my strength in my professionally boundaried present, as I will people forward so they can be the very best that they can be.
It is my low boredom threshold that enables my to move between the many roles of self employment and business ownership and be totally focused on each one for a specified amount of time.
It is my sheer tenacity that has caused me such resentment when the energy was expended, unrewarded, on others enterprises, that ensures I truly walk alongside my clients as they plumb the very depths to locate, expose, and choose to set down a limiting belief they hold that no longer serves them.
She’s right that Colleague of mine, I too am ‘self employed and loving it’, for this is where my vulnerabilities become my strengths. How can you play to yours?
