New Year's Revolution: Judith George

Judith George is a member of the New York Incubator and the owner of Reel Invitations.

 

I was immediately intimidated with the question, “What’s your revolution?” Now, I know that’s not a  very Ladies Who Launch thing to say. But I was.  Stating my revolution is no small thing.  I hadn’t been so hot at New Year’s resolutions  so how could I possibly have a revolution?  And if I did - would it be good enough? Or big enough or would it happen fast enough that
it would even qualify as a revolution?

It’s much too easy for me to get caught up in the feeling that things aren’t happening fast enough for me,since I’m a recovering member of the “I should be further alongat this point in my life” school.   At the beginning of20 07 I thought I thought instead of talking about all the things I needed to do but didn’t have time to do. Now, Itake another approach.  Every day I would give myself one task to do that would help towards growing my business.  It could be an email, phone -  anything  - just as long as I’m crossing something off my list.

This might not seem like a revolution but it’s my quiet revolution.  I’ve been working with my web designer Katie-James  to get my new website Reel Invitations up and running. I’m stringing the small steps together.  I like to think of how actors are often portrayed to be “overnight success” when I know better.  That’s just what the media would like us to think.  Most likely, that actor has been taking it one day and one audition at a time.  Preparing for their time.  Any hopefully my quiet revolution is doing just that for me.

I love your Reel Invitations. What a great idea. I'll pass it onto to everyone I know. Good luck with your new business ! I like your idea of doing at least one thing towards it every day. Louise

Great post. I think your quiet revolution is wonderful. I am sooo a current member of the “I should be further along at this point in my life” school and need to break away as you have.
