*** Are YOU Ready for 2024? ***
This year, 2023, has been yet ANOTHER remarkable, record-breaking year for Career Ownership!
The surge in small business starts spiked – again – here in the latter part of this year. At the micro-level? Many of my clients tell me they’re ready for the self-sufficient work and lifestyle that many others have begun post-pandemic. Some say they have become envious of friends and family who have already moved to Career Ownership!
The graph in this linked article is … stunning! The U.S. Census data (and graph at this LINK!) illustrate what we’ve seen from people ranging from early retirement to those in their mid-20’s. They’re ready to spend more time on important things: Their faith, family, health, relationships, and their work or vocation. My vantage point was on the front lines of American small business, and with the exception of a handful of vertical industries, the outlook going into 2024 is one of optimism. A happy client recently reminded me of THIS gem-of-a-quote:
“A salary is a drug they give you when they want you to forget about your dreams.” -Kevin O’Leary, Shark Tank guy / Entrepreneur
Is 2024 YOUR year to take ownership of your career? If NOT, then …
… Who Do You Know?
