Whether you are just about to launch your first blog, ebook or webinar or you are seasoned entrepreneur; I think you’ll benefit from these quotes taken from the Unstoppable Entrepreneur interviews I did this past year.
On Getting Started and Making It Happen
Thinking and doing are two different things. Until you actually put it out there..it’s just an idea! Do the work. Watch the complete interview with Natalie Sisson, the Suitcase Entrepreneur, where she shares her stellar product launch tips.
Hope will only get you so far! Watch my interview with Benny Hsu of Get Busy Living, where he shares how he went from hoping to doing and launched an awesome app that netted him $30K in the first month. If that’s not taking action..I don’t know what is!
The lovely Natalie MacNeil of She Takes On The World shares her advice for getting started and moving from dreaming to doing. It’s all about committing to take action and shipping!
Being Agile & Learning As You Go
Caroline Ceniza-Levine of Six Figure Start, talks about the importance of starting and adjusting as you go. Put the shortest path between you and earning your first dollars and get out there and talk to people. Figure out what you can do on your own in the beginning and be prepared to learn!
In our interview, Shelia Butler of Successful Women Talk, discusses the importance of putting systems in place FROM THE GET-GO! Because you are going to grow, right? And this helps you move from working in your business to on it.
On finding your WHY
Too often we get caught in all the glamorous stuff in our business..you know what I’m talking about: branding, biz cards and we kinda overlook the ‘under the hood’ stuff..like, what is this business all about? Find your why! Watch the complete interview with Nailah Blades of Polka Dot Coaching.
On a similar note, you need to find the balance between loving what you do and getting paid for it..If it’s all love and no cashola, then there may be a slight problem. Check out my interview with rad Kickstart Kitchen girls where we talked about kickstarting your business with a solid plan and accountability and lotsa other fun stuff.
On Staying Creative and Incorporating New Habits
Taking a break to detach and reconnect to our creative selves is so crucial. Watch my interview with Angela Horn of Balance and Life, where we discuss the importance of finding balance as an entrepreneur.

Too often when we are starting something new, we tend to think we have to ‘do it all’. Go big or go home? Not so fast! Claire Kerslake of Loving Life With Diabetes, shares the importance of actually starting small and working on integrating that new habit on a daily basis to actually cement the habit and stick to it.
Putting Yourself Out There
I absolutely loved what Cindy Gallop shared when I met her earlier this year as it is sooo true and necessary!
And there you have it!

Your turn:
- I’d love to hear in the comments which insight resonated with you the most and how you plan on incorporating it in your biz (and life!) in 2013.
- Know someone who could benefit from these insights? Please share this post with them! Greatly appreciated 🙂
is the practical advice. He shows you that you don’t have to spend tons of money to get your idea off the ground through his interviews with hundreds of entrepreneurs (as well as accidental ones) who share their stories and how they did it. Chris gets you thinking and acting like an entrepreneur and makes you realize that transforming an idea into a business does not have to be hard (but there is work involved!!)
