In the journey of a small business owner, the transition from an employee mindset to an entrepreneurial one is crucial when coming from struggling to seeing success. This shift is not just about working more or fewer hours; it’s about embracing a way of thinking that prioritizes long-term vision, innovation, and a deep sense of purpose. As my wife, Kylene, and I were discussing our non-negotiables for our life and business, we realized how vital an entrepreneurial mindset is for success. While I’ve been surrounded by an entrepreneurial environment from an early age, Kylene’s insights help illuminate the blind spots my upbringing might have left me with compared to other small business owners. She grew up in a more common mindset home where work was work and life was life and you worked Monday to Friday 9 AM to 5 PM.
