This is a HARD pill to swallow as an Enneagram 3. I find accomplishment in finishing processes. I am a high achiever. I always find ways to accomplish the goals I set for myself.

This year was different. Losing my mom changed everything. I lost my drive, my will, my creativity, and my energy. I lost my purpose.

I didn’t check 9 of the 10 goals off my list. I didn’t launch the magazine. I didn’t take the podcast to the next level. I didn’t hit revenue goals; in fact, I stopped all revenue completely. I didn’t create the event.

Here’s what I did learn.
1. I learned that my worth isn’t tied to my business.
2. I learned that I didn’t lose any support when I stopped creating.
3. I learned that I have poured more into my business than my family (that’s a harsh pill to swallow).
4. I learned that I have the best people in my life.
5. I have learned that my success isn’t tied to social media posts or revenue- I can do this business purely because it brings me joy.
6. I learned the actual meaning of pivot.
7. I learned that it’s ok to have seasons where your “day job” can be your main focus and it’s just as badass as owning your own business.

It’s ok if you didn’t accomplish your goals. I bet you learned as much or more than you set out to learn, you just have to dig into them.
