I love to include them in the process while making it (which is the journey). I find immense joy in working alongside people and witnessing their vision come to fruition.<\/p>\n<p>We should provide an experience that goes beyond the transactional nature of business.

I remind myself of these two things: why I started the business, and a business milestone I feel proud of. Writing the answers down is extremely powerful \u2014 the act makes them tangible and concrete. I make it a habit to do this every day or as often as I can. It keeps me laser-focused on my purpose and the tasks I need to conquer to achieve the success I envision.<\/p>\n<h3>Puja Surtani, 42, director of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastern-scent.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Eastern Scent<\/a><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_276637\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-276637\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-276637 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/entrepreneur-skills-Puja-Surtani-900x643.png\" alt=\"entrepreneur skills | Puja Surtani\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/entrepreneur-skills-Puja-Surtani-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/entrepreneur-skills-Puja-Surtani-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/entrepreneur-skills-Puja-Surtani.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-276637\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Puja Surtani<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Tenacity.

For every \u201cyes\u201d, there usually are at least 10 \u201cno\u201d replies. Even after working with some partners for years, the rejections can still get me down. But, I believe in and understand my business and industry. It\u2019s just a matter of reframing and shifting things to get the \u201cyes\u201d.
