Sweet friend,
The other day, I found myself staring at my to-do list, feeling that familiar tension between wanting to move faster and knowing that intentional growth takes time. It got me thinking about how often we as faith-driven entrepreneurs face this same struggle.
You know the feeling, right? That pull between:
Taking action vs. waiting for clarity
Moving quickly vs. building sustainably
Growing fast vs. growing deep
As I sat with this tension (and maybe a glass of iced coffee or two), I realized something important: our desire to move faster sometimes comes from looking at others' highlight reels rather than listening to God's timeline for our business.
Here's what I'm learning in my own journey:
• Sometimes what feels like "falling behind" is actually perfect positioning
• The seasons that seem slow are often laying crucial foundations
• Our careful, thoughtful approach isn't a weakness - it's wisdom in action
Sweet friend, if you're feeling that pressure to speed up today, consider this your permission slip to breathe. To pause. To remember that building a business that honors both your calling and your peace takes time.
Your thoughtful approach isn't slow - it's strategic.
Your careful consideration isn't indecision - it's wisdom.
Your desire to build differently isn't wrong - it's brave.
Sending you grace for wherever you are in your journey today,
