Decide to Be Yourself
This morning I was privileged to attend the Business Chicks event in Sydney’s Darling Harbour from the invitation of Brookfield, the speaker was Lorna Jane who has pioneered active ware for women, her brand has remained organic and true to their intention which is to make women feel more empowered exercising.
I love hearing business owners speak that have morphed their brand from the garage cutting table into something so strong and moving for the Australian Market, Lorna Jane is one of them.
Over my delicious breakfast and endless coffee refills, the messages that came clear for me were as follows:-
It all comes down too
Authenticity
Belief in Self
I can really relate to these comments as I spent years understanding my own value in real estate, it was also important to me not to be the stuffy suit wearing agent that was an order taker, I want to create results, be innovative and creative with solutions and ensure that the people and businesses that I put into properties really work and that their idea and vision grows from the location that I am able to help facilitate.
When Lorna Jane asked, ‘What is success?’
Happiness
Looking forward to your life
Wow, what a statement, on our kitchen wall /inspiration board at Oxford Agency, I wrote ‘Success is getting what you want, Happiness is wanting what you get’, so true, I can honestly say that I have never begrudged the fast past industry that I have been in for the last 18 years, every day, its refreshing, inspiring, fun, mind boggling momentum that I thrive off. We have the opportunity to create change in real estate, real positive change to small business owners dreams and lives. I love my life and have alot of gratitude for the opportunities and people around me.
Lorna Jane’s philosophy in life is ‘Move, Nourish & Believe’
Exercise/move every day, Nourish your body with great food and Believe that anything you want is possible.
What a great daily action plan to make life fulfilling and rewarding.
And finally her Biggest Lesson, ‘Decide to be Yourself’
I find being comfortable in your own skin is paramount to any success and momentum, if you know who you are and believe in what you are doing, it is almost impossible not to love yourself. I have been inspired by many other people in real estate, but I have never tried to be them, the books I have read and podcasts I listen too, I often think, tha’s innovative, how can I make that mine.
What a great morning, thank you Brookfield for the invitation, I enjoyed it so much I signed up to be a premium member of Business Chicks.
