Not As Expected

Garth Beyer

Of all the entrepreneurs I talk to, it still blows my mind how many talk about how they started one thing and how it turned into another.

The “other thing” being something they might not love as much as their original idea.

And that’s where I think they’re in the wrong and also when I ask about why they brought their original idea into the world (the answer is usually to help people in some way) and then I ask what the new idea is doing (it usually takes another question or two to get them to the root).

Turns out the impact of both ideas are awfully similar, if not the same.

Of course, it’s a choice to look at it through the lens of the why. Sadly, many merely look at their original idea as a failure or miss doing what they originally set out to do (likely because their is comfort in it).

But when they can look beyond the what what and see the why; it’s like their energy and passion finally makes the pivot, too.

Stay Positive & Go With The Pivot
