I’ve been working for a small business for going on 2.5 years, and I can genuinely see myself staying here for a while. Long story short, my career here provides me with significant fulfillment and financial upside. I’m often left asking myself, should I spend my time developing an entrepreneurial mindset with which I can contribute to the business? Or, should I spend my time becoming as valuable as I can in my particular role? I’m confident that I’m not the first nor the last person to consider these questions.
Luckily, in my case, there are some synergies between the two potential focus areas because of the business we’re in, and there’s no reason why I can’t do both. In fact, having these separate but related focuses provides me with broad topics I can bounce between depending on the strength of my interest at a given time.
Wow, I feel better already. Writing things down is so powerful.
