There are plenty of women in business that you don’t hear about all the time on signs and in the paper. Your favorite Avon Lady, your favorite Hair Dresser, your favorite girl that does your nails. Even Mom next door that handles the business of running a home. No matter what it is or how well known you are, the bottom line is that it takes many levels of commitment, determination, and most of all self discipline. You have to be motivated to get up, get ready and get on your way. Of course you can always say...I think I’ll stay home today... but if you want to be successful in keeping your clients and getting new ones there must be the highest of commitment, determination and again self discipline! As always I try to wake up everyday with those of goals, I love my work, I enjoy the people I get to work with and most important I always hold the highest respect for any Woman in Business.
