This is a YouTube video titled "Framework" containing a monologue by Melissa Dlugolecki recorded in September 2023. In this authoritative content, Melissa discusses the responsibilities and mindset required in entrepreneurship, comparing it to parenthood and emphasizing the importance of structure and commitment in growing a business.
So many people that I work with are on that, like spiritual, that like higher, the manifestation, the calling in. And they really have resistance to their work being structured. And here's the problem with that. When you choose in, because yes, you are choosing an entrepreneurship, it is a privilege, it's a responsibility, it's freedom, it's all the things. But you are choosing in. It is much like choosing into parenthood. So when you are fully responsible for the creation, the growing, the growth of something, now, of course your kids are going to grow up and be fine on their own, just like your business will grow and be fine on its own. But in the beginning, you are not getting up saying, what does my soul feel like doing as a parent? Today my soul doesn't feel like grocery shopping. Today my soul doesn't feel like, you know, taking care of my child or playing with my child. It's what does my child need? Same thing when you are raising a business and it's truly in the framework that your soul gets to play.
