Hustle is what separates those who ridiculously overshoot their goals from those who sorta-kinda-get-close-maybe-they\u2019ll-try-next-year.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve had the privilege of interviewing incredibly dynamic business women on the <b>Business Women Rock!<\/b> podcast and one common theme in their stories is that they all had an abundance of HUSTLE in them.<\/p>\n<p>They were willing to sacrifice and push and make their businesses \u2013 and themselves \u2013 grow.<\/p>\n<p>Hustle isn\u2019t just about working more hours (although that\u2019s usually a part of the equation).\u00a0 And it\u2019s not just about producing more money (although that usually comes). And it\u2019s not even being so tunnel-vision-focused that you can\u2019t stop to smell the roses.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Hustle is an attitude that exists when you dig in deep with your eyes focused on your goal and you see no other option than to succeed.\u00a0 <\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Take Nicole Levine, for example.\u00a0 She moved to the US from Israel when she was 18 years old and started her own cleaning business. I smiled when she told me about \u201cstalking\u201d the people in her neighborhood with the \u201cfancy schmancy\u201d houses and convinced them they just <i>had<\/i> to hire her to clean their houses (even though she was 10 times more expensive) because she was be the BEST cleaner they would ever have!\u00a0 Thirty years later, that attitude still exists as she runs 5 different companies! (<a href=\"http:\/\/bizwomenrock.com\" target=\"_blank\">Listen to her interview HERE!<\/a>)<\/p>\n<h2>Hustle is the crucial ingredient every business must have in order to succeed.<\/h2>\n<p><strong>WHAT DOES YOUR HUSTLE LOOK LIKE?<br \/>\n(Leave a comment below!)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Maybe it\u2019s the stomachache you get because the writing and editing and re-writing of your book is physically jarring. Maybe it\u2019s the dark circles under your eyes from a sleepless night spent on a project. Maybe it\u2019s the determination to approach someone who seems completely out of your league. Maybe it\u2019s the creative weaving of services so you can acquire a client.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever it is, I applaud you for your hustle.\u00a0 Because when you got it\u2026the world is your oyster and nothing can stop you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hustle.\u00a0This word keeps on popping up in my mind lately.
