Why Not?

WRITTEN BY: JENNIFER STROUT, FOUNDER OF MOTIVATEU 

I had so many ideas since I was a young child and over the years I would see them come to life through others.

But I would shrug it off because I thought, oh well, I’ll never do it myself.

I didn’t know why.

I just knew I wouldn’t.

I continued with this narrative, yet it made me increasingly uncomfortable.

I started to become resentful of the idea that it couldn’t be me.

Then one day I dropped back on LinkedIn, I hadn’t signed in for years. And I saw a ton of people I graduated college with as startup founders.

These were my peers. People I knew on a first name basis.

I realized at that point that there was literally no reason that it couldn’t be me. And that quickly turned into a determination that it would be me!

And so it was.
