Just after my meeting with one of my mentees, I asked her how her business had been. She first tried to push the question aside but insisted that business was slow.

In her mind, I knew she had expected the conversation to end there but I pushed ahead with another question to know what the challenge was.

"Business is slow, you say? What do you think could be the cause?" I asked.

You see when trying to counsel someone, don't try to figure out everything out for the person. Trying to do the work will dampen the person's confidence.

So after what seemed like a long conversation, the problem was identified and a strategy was developed to tackle It.

One of the strength you must buildde this year is self confidence. A lot of change can happen around you of you have the boldness of be honest with the challenges you're facing seeking for help.

You want to explore this year, go ahead and build self confidence.

I see you doing greatly this week.
