Marie Forleo’s is a wildly successful coach with the mission to live a full life as a multi-passionate entrepreneur, and help others do the same. She didn’t get there overnight, though. The journey took years, an incredible amount of hard work, and humility.
Her entrepreneurial journey started in a flurry on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, when Marie realized that she was not being the person she wanted to be. Marie had to quit her job on the floor of the NYSE and pursue her purpose.
She then went from the trading floor to bartending to Condé Nast to choreographing hip hop for MTV to being one of the world’s first Nike Elite Dance Athletes – then she went on to write an international bestseller and launch a digital education company that caused Oprah Winfrey to dub Marie as “a thought leader for the next generation.”
Curiosity is Essential
“You have to be curious and you have to stay curious, if you want to continue learning and growing and, most importantly, innovating.”
Curiosity is one of the keys to long-term success, and Marie’s multi-passionate career is driven by an insatiable curiosity.
If you believe you already know everything, you’re going to fail. You may fail in six months or six years, but you’re going to fall on your face.
The Future of Entrepreneurship
Soon, more and more people will have to behave in an entrepreneurial manner, even if they’re not necessarily founding a company. There are more freelancers than there have ever been, more people working with flexible schedules, and intrapreneurs are becoming increasingly valuable within organizations.
