Surroundings.

       Parts from my nearest sourrundings. On my balcony I say hello to the sun, when it rises, and goodnight, when it’s sunsettime.  I watch the moon in all her phases - wakes up in the middle of  the night, bathed in moonlight.  From my balcony I shout out my joy and succes to the Universe. My balcony is also a perfect place to cry and scream out frustrations and anger, when everything is too much. (It happens I howl to the moon.) On my balcony and in the  garden I find peace, when thoughts and visions are spinning to fast. Peace and inspiration to sharpen a project from idea to action. Peace, joy and harmony. The Wise Woman and I.

The Wise Woman’s speach about female Entrepreneurship. Part two.

I was asked, if I have any good advices for female Entrepreneurs. I’m The Wise Woman – you know – so of course I have.

My most important advice, is a quote from ‘The big Moo’: ‘STOP trying to be perfect – and start being remarkable’!!!!!! Why That? Because it is my experience, that women seek the perfection in anything we do –right? Wanting to be perfect, blocks us from taking ACTION – and hereby succeed with our business. Or at least, it takes much longer time to realize or Bizznessdream.

Women and growth: In the Entrepreneurial week, I heard a lecture about female Start Ups and their visions for growth and development in their businesses. The female lecturer had some reflexions about female entrepreneurs. She called it ‘The parallel business segment.’ Because women want growth – but not in the traditional way.

Here is what I think: I think, that a lot of women are first-movers, thinking work/life-balance as a value in their business – right from the start. Firstmovers, because doing things your own way – in other words: be true yourself and follow your heart, is the businessway for the future. For all of us. Erhvervs- og byggestyrelsen’  have made an investigation and a report about it too.

The bonus advice: In All the networks, I join, there are at least 3 times more men, than women……! Except one – a female business-network Morgendagens Heltinder. (There are other simular, naturally.) Instead of harcelling over all the black jackets, I have decided to enjoy it. I keep my spirit and believes, in what I think is the right way to be a successful businesswoman. And the – of course – exchange knowledge and experience with my male colleagues. Do the same and have fun AND success.

These were the words from an old rolemodel – the Wise Woman.

The Wise Woman and me.

She has always been a part of me as long, as I remember. I just didn’t recognize her, until a few months ago. She appeared to me,  when I was invited be the hostess at an event about Female Entrepreneurship.  

At first – when I was asked, I thought: ‘Oh yeah – hmmm? In my imagination it was ME, who should be the lecturer….!!!! Obviously he thinks I’m TOO old to be a rolemodel for female Entrepreneur-students. Hmmm.’ 

My second thought was: ’ Wauw – YES – I’d love it! Sure – I’m not old – I am The Wise Woman, with the big honour to create the right set-up for 3 fantastic young women, with each their angle and experience with Entrepreneurship.’

This was my first concious meeting with her. At first, she was like a joke. Now I know, that it’s faaaar from the truth. She is a voice in my head, actually it has always been there. But mostly she is a feeling -  a belief. A Silent Knowledge that belongs, where the words are ending. Can you follow? She looks behind things and situations – seeing all clearly. (You should know, how many spanks, I recieved through the years. I wasn’t aware, that the others didn’t know, what I took for granted. It’s not claivoyance – It’s ….????)

The Wise Woman’s heart beats for the children and the youngsters. Sometimes she even appears as a worrier, when it comes to rights and caring for ‘The Future’s Gold’. It happens, though, that a drop of her wisdom touches the so called grown-ups, as a wake-up call. The truth is, that she forgets all around her, when she meets the children and the young ones – having some Empowering Conversations. That’s how it is.

For ME, living with The Wise Woman, it’s a relief to give her a name and a voice. To let her into my life with appreciation. I hardly know her full power yet, but I know for sure, that she will bring me lots of strength, joy and challenges – troubles maybe? (Even more than before, I got to know her…..) What I know is, that The Wise Woman and me, is one  united creature, that’s gonna change the World – creating Worldwide CommUNITY. I am SO exited to see HOW……..

All this brings up the gooooood question: ’Who created who?’ Did I create The Wise Woman? Or - did  she actually create ME?
