Entrepreneurship Lifestyle in the Hospitality Industry

career-479578_1280We are finally slowing down from a busy stretch in the meetings and events industry. This has enabled me to attend Parents Weekend at my daughters’ college. At the last minute, I was able to extend my visit and spend some quality time with my daughter. This independent work model within the hospitality industry enables me to make last-minute adjustments and spend more time with my family.

As independent hospitality management professionals, we live by the quote I am sharing below. We choose to embrace this philosophy and pursue our dream of being an independent business owner within the meeting and event planning industry.

“Entrepreneurship is living a few years of your life like most people won’t, so you can spend the rest of your life like most people can’t”. Anonymous

You could make this lifestyle work for you as well. You can control your life, your career and have unlimited earning potential. The key is to work with an organization and leader that has a proven track record of helping individuals make the transition successfully from employee…to entrepreneur and in control of their life. It is not a leap after little thought, but a strategic move where you need a roadmap to success. You need a coach and mentor to lead you through the process…I know because I have been this person for over 100 people who have successfully made the transition.

I am thankful for this opportunity in our industry so I can enjoy more quality time with my daughter. I hope one day it will work for you as well.
