Entrepreneurship; Self-help & personal development

"Think Daring Greatly meets The War of Art- a guide for entrepreneurs to embrace uncertainty and engage their brilliance, using principles from the performing arts to guide their next move in work and life.

Every entrepreneur is in search of their next move-that next idea with a sharp edge or fresh angle that inspires and ignites. But how do you know when to trust your gut and when to cut your losses and move on?

Presentation strategist and performing artist Victoria Labalme has worked with over 700 organizations, entrepreneurs running multimillion-dollar businesses, and Hollywood celebrities-and she has learned a powerful answer to that question- some of the most successful companies and creative endeavours didn't start with a plan or a goal. They started with an idea and figured out the next steps as they went.

Risk Forward helps you do the same in your own life and work, giving you the permission not to know exactly where you're heading. Victoria uses principles drawn from the performing arts to prove that uncertainty is not the enemy, but a crucial step on the path, and to show that even when your plans and goals aren't clear, you can follow your curiosity, interests, and ideas forward. You'll learn how to-

Discover the ""noble intent"" behind your work

Follow ""the idea that leads to the idea""

Trust your own internal timing

Listen to others-but not too much

Defy your category while remaining within it

And much more ""Some people in life know exactly what they want to achieve,"" Victoria writes. ""Risk Forward is for the rest of us."""
