The moment I got the role from Sam in Meetup New York. A great break!
It’s been almost a year now since I made a key decision in my business that set my life in a new and amazing direction.
It all started with my Meetup Group “Profitable Marketing” in Sydney. It went great when I started doing fortnightly workshops and I was approached by Meetup HQ to apply for one of their roles.
Meetup HQ (in New York), invited a few people from Sydney to apply for their role as “Meetup City Organiser”. This is to help run Meetup across town.
I knew this was a break, went for it and got it against some serious competition.
This was the easy part, I then had to deliver successful full events for them and get rave reviews.
As I knew this was break, I worked incredibly hard, nailed the events and then it totally morphed into something more amazing. I got involved we WeWork, I was sent to New York to join them and speak to their people and it’s been a great change.
Getting the break came from what I was going already, but in order to make the break work, I had to work extremely hard and deliver.
My advice and thinking? When you get a break, that is when the hard work really begins. If I stuffed up this opportunity, it would have set my whole life back. As I delivered, it’s advanced my life forward and it’s just been wonderful. It’s given me access to clients, people, opportunities and friends that never would have existed unless I went for it.
Take full advantage of your breaks friends! They don’t come everyday, so make them work.
Do what it takes to win big. Love your work and enjoy friends!
