It’s the secret to a sustainable solopreneur career.
Transitioning from a corporate job to solopreneurship hinges on building an ongoing cycle of meaningful interactions with commercially-viable connections.
These connections aren’t just random contacts.
They need to be capable of sustaining your venture and replacing your corporate income.
What would motivate these connections to support you?
It’s shared values โ the foundation for common objectives.
In the corporate world, employees often feel like cogs in a machine.
Office interactions lack harmony because they aren’t organic.
Corporate mandates dictate daily activities for all, making the organization feel more like an algorithm than a community.
In the grand scheme of things, your personal values don’t really matter to a corporation.
This is why employees’ individual contributions are so easily undervalued, leading to a sense of anonymity and disconnection.
Inside a corporation, the collective surpasses the individual in importance, thus, in value.
But as a solopreneur, you maintain your individualityโyou’re an organism, not an organization.
You remain a person with principles, beliefs, sentiments, and valuesโa personality.
This starkly contrasts against the impersonal corporate environment and opens the door to forming deeper, more personal relationships through value-driven networking that you initiate for mutual respect and shared envisioning.
A solopreneurship allows you to build a network that reflects your true spirit and aspirations.
By engaging chiefly with like-minded individuals, who share your values and commercial interests, you create a supportive community that naturally values your contributions and projections.
This network transforms your work experience into one that is both fulfilling and deeply connected.
Do you want a work life that is productive and gratifying?
If so, then take initiative to develop a value-driven network.
And be resilient. You’ll run into opposition.
In spite of it, commit to engaging daily primarily with those who share your values and vision for solopreneurship.
Equally yoke only with those who can bear the same load as you for the same reasons as you took the yoke onto your own shoulders.
Build this critical hinge to transition from a corporate employee to a successful solopreneur, by avoiding people who conflict with your values yet you need as collaborators.
Instead, practice value-driven networking.
