So, you’re longing to launch your own venture but don’t know how to get started? Health and Business coach Shannon Petteruti has the answers and is sharing them on this episode of She Turned Entrepreneur. Step 1: Locate your passion. Having that vision will make even the toughest tasks and longest days a labor of love. Step 2: Habit. Habit. Habit. Establish foundational practices — then stick to them! It’s all about staying focused, which instills the confidence to take those necessary chances that are key to growth.
This dynamic entrepreneur has done it herself and knows what it takes to launch a successful enterprise. If we’re not taking risks we’re not moving forward, says Shannon, “You have to believe in who you are and then just put those pieces in place.” And when some of those pieces don’t work, that’s just fine too. Do a post-mortem and move on. It’s all part of the process!
Shannon offers advice for aspiring entrepreneurs as well as actionable ideas about habits that will serve any business from inception through development and maturity. The work is endless but the rewards tremendous. “It’s just so fun. I love having your thoughts, your input and your work 20 hours a day all going to your outcome and not someone else you’re working for,” says Shannon, also the author of "IV Vitamin Regulations: Your Guide for USP 797 Pharmacy Compliance." Join us for a lively chat with a coach will inspire you to kick procrastination to the curb! It all starts with the non-negotiable!

Here are key takeaways from the conversation:
· Why is going it alone so much fun? All the effort comes back directly to benefit our own venture (and not someone else’s).
· Take each task as it comes and complete it. Keep the focus! You’ll get to the fun stuff eventually and be in a place to really enjoy it because your house is in order!
· Create goals and a checklist. Then institute the habit of consistently checking things off.
· Efforts are going to fail, but that can easily be turned into an opportunity. Do the post mortem, then do better next time!
· There’s nothing like the independence in owning your own business, but you don’t have to go it alone. Seek advice and encouragement from a coach or some other supportive resource.
· Envision who you are, then methodically institute habits to put the pie
