What I Learned at the Business and Learning Expo

Mostly I learned that the only difference between the people presenting and the people asking questions is thinking and doing.

The presenters are all doing, sure they plan, but they don’t spend all their time planning and trying to figure it all out. They figure out enough to make an educated guess of success and then start working on the plan.

I also discovered that in many cases, people are well known because they got one small opportunity and used it effectively. Of the 11 Moms, there is only one I know that has moved on and moved up, using her one-off opportunity to create a brand and a potentially sustainable business.

So when you have a little notoriety, or if you get in your local paper…use the exposure and build it into something bigger and better.
