Visit the Eiffel Tower, check out the Louvre, and venture out towards the Palace of Versailles would most definitely make the cut.
•
•
But ultimately, exploring the magic of Paris requires a uniquely tailored experience for everyone. And if you're "in the know" of the culture, you can make your experience even more amazing. •

When I was in France, I met with Chrystal, a Parisian, for breakfast. •
•
During our time together, I found out some pretty amazing things about Chrystal and France.

Like me, Chrystal left her corporate career to become an entrepreneur. She’s developing this amazing app that would be super helpful to travelers and everyday explorers.

As we discussed the aspects of her business and entrepreneurial struggles we both experience, she shared something with me that seriously blew my mind.

As a French citizen, if you resign from your job to become an entrepreneur, 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙚𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙖 𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙝𝙡𝙮 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙜𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩, 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙘𝙝 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙗𝙚 70% 𝙤𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙧𝙮. 😱

Talk about a serious boost.

Of course, it comes with stipulations, but the fact the government pays you to work on your business - Where do I sign up?! •
•
•
I did some serious research (i.e., 30 minutes of Googling). I found that French citizens who quit their jobs to become business owners can receive unemployment benefits for up to TWO YEARS. •
•
•
The school of thought is to encourage people to start businesses and “not hold onto jobs for life”. •
•
•
In fact, entrepreneurship in France has surged under this arrangement. •
•
•
The downside, in Chrystal’s view, is the assistance could sometimes hinder the grind if you’re not worried about where that next check will come from. •
•
•
With that said, she knows it would have been more complicated to leave her job if she didn’t have the help.

I believe nothing should hinder you from going after your dreams. Where there’s a will, you can make a way.

Its easier said than done, but I’d love to hear your perspective.

After getting settled into my accommodations, the very first thing I like to do is get a feel for the area. ❤️
I walk around on foot or schedule a walking tour with someone that is local to the area.
❤️
It helps set the tone for my trip and gives me an idea of how I want to spend the remaining time I have there.

We’ve got less than a month before the new decade and year, but you don’t have to wait until then to make that next move towards achieving your goals.
❤️
Start with this new week.
Personally, I’ve been slacking on a productive routine, so I’m going to start by using my Law of Attraction planner to get me back on track (link in bio).
