As an entrepreneur you may seem like a stranger in a wilderness. Your path is usually not the norm or traditional. Most of us want to be liked, we do anything to be accepted. We buy the latest dresses, suits and cars to be accepted. However most fresh ideas, new inventions and change come about because somebody embraced the unfamiliar. The unfamiliar, that place that originates from within, you may be the only one exposed to a concept or idea. It may not be popular or the latest thing to do. It is unfamiliar, It may be unheard of today. The unfamiliar is hard to embrace because it usually is diametrically opposite to everything you see and hear.
How can we embrace the unfamiliar place? You hear that small voice inside you that gives instructions, specific instructions, but, how, when, where, who me? Yes, you change comes as you embrace the unfamiliar. It is taking a specific action no matter how small, followed by another action. Many things can start to happen at this point. One thing that happens is your confidence begins to build. You idea also begins to germinate.
The unfamiliar should be embraced, it is a place of growth and expansion. At that place you will be on the cutting edge because you are not being passive, but being creative. Many people get confused with the artist and creativity. A mother is an artist, so is a painter or photographer. It is the creating and manifestations that label the artist. Ask any mom who has to make three meals a day and do laundry as she may be dealing with different age children while she maintains her apartment or home. It is art in motion, if you don’t believe it, give it a try.
Embracing the unfamiliar will take you to places and allow you to met with people you would never have imagined. It will allow you to touch and change peoples lives. This is what life is all about, it is about doing what God has given you to do and influencing others as you live in your purpose. Embrace the unfamiliar.
