Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Kyley Paul, from Kitchener, Ontario, Canada.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
Plan and live your dream life! You can create and experience the life of your dreams using simple systems I have created throughout my entrepreneurship journey. Vision planning is getting clear on what you want in all domains of your life: health, wealth, and love.
Tell us about yourself
My mission is to mentor and motivate anyone who connects with my story! I am continually working towards mastery in all areas of my life and find fulfillment in learning and teaching. I fell in love with the business and personal growth when I started my first consulting company in 2015. Since then, I have grown it over 400x, managed six full-time staff, and my household as a single mom of two little boys. Coaching with Kyley is the formalized version of the mentoring I have been doing over the last five years. I have developed efficient systems to increase my own productivity and live my dream life every day.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Still being in business 100% on my own after seven years! It is not an easy journey being a business owner, founder, and operator as the sole equity holder. Surviving and learning to thrive throughout this journey is a HUGE win!
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
All of the responsibility! It is a balance; you have all the flexibility for your time, finances, management, and all the responsibility. Also, the mental strain you go through as a business owner is not something you can prepare for.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Read every day; never stop learning. Write notes and re-read them annually.
- Plan. Get very clear on your vision for the business, 10+ years ahead of time, and work backward to achieve your targets.
- Celebrate often. Give yourself credit for progress along the way.
