You're the one they call an old soul. You know where you came from, and you want your destination to reflect that journey. You feel a deep responsibility to your family and your community, and you're driven to create a business that provides for both. You're a fan of good, old-fashioned hard work, and it’s that powerful work ethic that has allowed you to build what you have. But sometimes your reliance on the way things have always been keeps you from embracing newer (and at times, faster or more efficient) ways of getting things done. Beware your tendency to stick with a process because you're intimidated by other possibilities. For the upcoming month, make your focus on working smarter, not harder. Explore new technologies, follow some key influencers on Twitter, attend an outside the box business conference, network with people in entirely different industries, take some online courses in social media or email marketing or sit down and watch back-to-back TED Talk Marathons. Then get out of your comfort zone (yes, I know it's lovely there, but it's also limiting) and try something new. You'll be glad you did.
