The Dashboard is a Construct: The True Measure of Success in Business
Cheryl and Colleen discuss the pressures and expectations entrepreneurs face as the new year approaches. They delve into managing financial stress, the importance of consistent effort, and the mindset required to sustain motivation. They also explore the significance of viewing achievements as cumulative rather than resetting at the beginning of the year.  Key Points:  - Fill your days with activities that fuel your soul's passion. When you do, getting up and doing it again is exciting.  - Recognize the importance of gratitude and self-appreciation, highlighting entrepreneurial friends who celebrate their achievements.  - Understand the emotional and physical tolls of high-achievement and the necessity of finding a balance.  - Importance of bookkeeping and financial management, touching on themes of shame and the benefits of hiring professionals.  - Transition from corporate jobs to commission-based income, discussing the associated challenges and mental shifts required.  - Emphasize collaboration, relationship-building, and consistently doing the right thing in business to build lasting success.  - Address the psychological impacts of comparing oneself to other high achievers and focusing on personal growth and consistency.  - Highlight the message: the dashboard of life is a construct; achievements do not reset with the calendar year.  Quotes:  - "Fill your days with the things that fill your soul with passion."  - "The hard work you've put in all year does not disappear on December 31st; it compounds." - "When you're an entrepreneur, it's a you versus you thing."  - "Consistency is the difference."  - "Outsource tasks that drain your soul to wake up feeling excited."
