286 | Is it an accident or an intentional decision with Katie Hunt

When I talk to people about their business, they often say they "fell into business" or became an "entrepreneur by accident." It's a common story, especially in the creative online space that we all work in. These people solved a problem, likely for themselves, and then that solution led to something greater… whether it be a new business, new product or revenue stream.

One thing I always like to remind these entrepreneurs of… is that even though the idea or the initial spark of the solution may have been an accident, building, growing, sustaining that new business, product or program is never an accident. It is an intentional choice to continue and that intentionality is what leads to success and greatness over the long haul.

Today I want to share one of my stories… about my own "happy accident." I made an intentional decision that some considered to be a rash decision—it was scary, but necessary and the outcome has truly been beautiful.
