I'm so excited to share that the new 2020 Artist of Life Workbook is out!! Start your year with crystal clear vision. This is your guide to setting your intentions and goals for 2020: lavendaire.com/workbook
"Keep going doesn't mean keep trying the same thing that doesn't work over and over again."
Thanks
Better than other "Motivational" Speakers.
Thank you. I feel calm and relax to listen to your talk.
“No one knows what they’re doing” if it isn’t the truth!! That definitely applies to everything in life. We are all trying to figure it all out.
Don’t be afraid to fail. If you fail, try again but this time it’ll be with experience.
From a self love content creator to another; loved this video Aileen! 💜
I love her voice honestly and LOVE her content
"Don't compare yourself to others" - this one is definitely the hardest but most effective skill.
Another fantastic and insightful video, thank you so much ❤️
He who has health, has hope and he who has hope, has everything.
✨✨
stayhappylittle mermaid Yes!! 💕
My favourite is when you say that we have not to consider failures personally..I'm that woman who feels bad when making mistakes 😢 you give such useful tips 💜 love them 😍😍
Anne Lu Dumbledore31 Am guilty of feeling guilty! Working on it! We got this!! 💕
Entrepreneurship is a path of life exploration. You can't make it, if you just rely on a certain skill.
You have to be well rounded within different things and especially dealing with emotions.
so true
Sending love to all entrepreneurs and to those who are starting now ♡♡♡♡ we can do this!!! :D
Thanks Erika!! 🤗 Sending positive vibes
@@SimpleHappyZen ♡♡♡♡ aaaw much love !!!
Thanks lovely.
@@FlexNFly have a wonderful day ! ♡
I love how you view failure as data! I never thought of it that way- great lessons Aileen!! 😊💕
Had to learn to!
“There is always a way” 💛
Love that first insight! Also love Marie Forleo and “Everything is Figureoutable” I’m reading her book right now.
Thanks for the video!
"Learn to detach yourself from your successes and failures." 👏👏👏👏
Video idea: your top 10 most game changing skillshare classes!
Another video idea: top 10 most game changing podcasts (besides lavendaire lifestyle of course 😋)
Don't tie your self-worth to your success and failures...... yes!!!! Thank you for sharing this!
I love the idea of separating yourself from your failures. I really want to start my own business but I’m so scared to fail. Not only that I feel like I’m not good enough at what I do to be showing or giving other people advice on it. Even though I have a diploma in my field of nutrition and there are tons of people online giving nutritional advice with not formal training I just feel like I’m under qualified to be telling other people how to live a healthy lifestyle. Thanks so much for your videos I love listening to someone in my demographic give advice on business it honestly helps me feel like it is more possible for me. Thanks for being you! 🤗
The second lesson reminds me of some lyrics I love, "though you never know all the steps, you must learn to join the dance"
*there are two types of videos I like from you the most. Number one are the Vlogs, which are very rare on your channel, and number two are the videos on self-growth AKA life talks! They inspire me to grow, and especially because I am an aspiring entrepreneur and UA-camr myself, I take what you say seriously. I also listen to your podcast weekly! Thank you.*
"experience is the greatest teacher" - the best advice I got from this video ♥️ thank you
You are soo soo calming ... I just love watching your videos ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Such excellent advice!! My favourites:
- Do not compare your chapter 1 to someone else's chapter 20
- Failure is just data.
What an insightful video Aileen!!😃🙌 Your thoughts on knowing when to move on from something that isn’t working really resonated with me. Sometimes I think we all get too attached to the investment we placed in things, instead of acknowledging when they’re just not working & simply moving on to better things (hopefully with greater wisdom). 💯 But when you started talking about avoiding the tendency to tie your success to your self worth... I was literally like, 🙌”Preach Honey!!!” I really hope people take the time to assimilate that one, because that was some deep wisdom right there!💯 Thank you so much Aileen for always delivering such thoughtful content!! 🤗 I know we all truly appreciate it!! 💯💕
glad you relate!! ✨
don't compare your chapter 1 to someone else's chapter20.
I really love it !!
You can always polish your work later or as you go. But the one thing I've learnt about being a business owner is when you are figuring things out, sometimes it opens up more problems haha, so just keep going!👏🏻😀
I truly love your positive thinking to the negative things
Only person whose notification are on in my UA-cam app 😁❤
As an aspiring entrepreneur myself, this was so helpful!!❤️
Thank you so much for ...*everything is figureoutable*
These days I watch your video almost everyday because I just found Lavendaire on UA-cam. I feel so much inspired by you. Your videos simply help me to see things through different perspectives. Thank you for sharing your amazing thoughts and experiences. I feel blessed to be inspired by them. ♥️
U r really an angle come from heaven by a baby cloud mix from love, positive and peace to inspire us all 💖luv from sis Esraa from sudan😍💗
my fav was detaching your emotions from failure and success!! believe in that so much
Do not compare your first chapter with someone's twentieth chapter. Love that!
This came at such a perfect time for me. Thx for sharing
You are my guidebook of life Aileen!
Thanks Aileen, for these awesome tipps! It helps a lot that you share your own vulnerability and "failures" along the way. Sometimes I am between inspiration and comparison when I am watching your videos, but learning that you too are always in a process helps me go my own way. You are one of my main female examples that has showed me what is possible and therefore inspired me to create my own business.
Lovely tips mentioned! Absolutely loveee your channel!
I love this! I love your business videos (and all videos obviously) I really liked how you were candid and gave examples about what didn't work for you and how you detached from it and moved forward!
POWERFUL TIPS!
Thank you for always sharing your exceptional wisdom, especially the entrepreneurial advice about non-comparison, Ailyeen! We appreciate your positive light and please keep shining!
Victory is yours,
Largy (The AcrõGecko)
Just started my own company and this was so reassuring, thank you!!
I once compared my chapter 20 to someone’s chapter 1 and got sad 😞 sometimes people just kill it at level 1.
& yes, the leadership is all about setting the example for others!!
Russian subtitles are available! Click "CC" and check the video settings. Thank you to the contributor listed in the description 💕
Thank you so much for these tips!
Love this!!!! Thank you so much 👌💛🙌
Can’t wait to start working on my Artist of Life Workbook 2020!
very very inspired me to take my steps to success furthermore...Thanks Aileen..
have a nice day guys..
Thank you! ☺🤗💖
This video was so good! Thank you.
Thanks Aileen, lovit! Got Skillshare about a month ago and it helps me sooo much!
Thank you Aileen! I definitely agree that we should not let our success and failures determine our self-worth. This is a great reminder at the right time.
You literally made my day and changed my mindset. I'm not having any luck in my skincare business but trying out cosmetics line
I love that advice about not taking failures personally.
To be honest, I can't help doing that but it feels better to believe in that.
In relation, comparing yourself to other people also contribute to this.
Right now, I am not in school to pursue the career I want, but I know in time, I can achieve it, although it may not be as soon like others.
thank you soo much, Aileen❤ i feel a lot better after listening this. love u
I love you, your are my inspiration 💜
I love the business videos because I recently started my own business and it's what I really need.
The last lesson is something that I feel right now. Simply: You can't expect your member team as good or care as you" 👍🏻
Hey Aileen! I loved this video so much :) "no one knows what they're doing" really resonated with me, as a senior in college yikes. honestly no one has a single clue on how to really be an adult or start a business. on one hand, it's super refreshing to know that my aimlessness and anxiety isn't unique, but on the other hand, it makes me a little sad to know that adults aren't as invincible as I perceived them to be in my youth.
Developing on the idea of being an entrepreneur, I was wondering how you dealt with loneliness/aimlessness when you were working by yourself (if that was ever the case for you)! I've recently found myself growing my own creative business and found that it's been really hard to create connections with people and find guidance and mentorship, especially in such a new and young industry.
Thanks for your videos as always :) Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you for your sharing
Thank you for this! Really got me inspired! 💕
Hello😊 Your video is on time. You're the best. Thank you for inspiration🤗 .
That is such great advice, thank you!! ❤️😊
Lavendaire is really a positive, relevant, full of knowledge and inspiring channel. 💟💟💎
Aileen you are a Queen 👑.
💞💞 sending love!
God, I need to get to work! Thx
woow, thank you for this x
I am really so grateful for you... Really thank you 😭♥️
Amazing lessons, I’ve learnt so much. Thank you Lavendaire ✨
This is probably one of the most valuable videos on your channel. Great information, thank you :)
Wow..this is very useful ❤
I needed this! Thank you!
So much wisdom! Especially the last ones about failure. Keep it up! Keep inspiring :)
This really helps to put things into a different perspective, for me. I just am starting out a project which I really hope by end of this year if not even better by mid of 2020, things will turn into my full time business.
Thank you for the tips! I also want to deeply thank you for the time and effort you put in your 2020 Artist of LIfe Workbook! I recently recieved it Sunday and I just wanted to CRY after reading through each and every page! ❤ ❤ Continue to FLOURISH in what you do Aileen! 🥰
Aww thank you!! ✨
Thank you so much for your authenticity and the helpful contents you share with us!
Love this video! And obsessed with your set. I 100% agree - there is ALWAYS a way! My family and I just recovered from COVID, and we had to figure out how to deal with it and recover and take care of a toddler... all while making sure my business still ran smoothly. UGH. ( I just made a video about it lol pretty comical) But I love the perspective that everything is figure-out-able. :)
This should be called lessons I learned from living. So helpful in so many ways 😍
Thank u so much🥰
you are amazing girl! I am also on the process of growing my business - From Melbourne Australia ;)
Thanks for all these tips, Aileen! While listening to you, all I can think is that I can apply them all with my UA-cam channel - being new to the bullet journal niche yt channel. My favorite is to not compare myself to others. And I do my best to not to! :)
I love these tips! I'm just dipping my toes into business with my first venture, and I couldn't agree more with treating failures as information! It's data that you can use to your advantage, learn from your mistakes! Great video! :)
Yup!!
Hey Aileen - Great lessons shared - it's fascinating what we learn as we go through the process. Sharing is caring, it isn't about knowing so that we avoid these necessary experiences. It's more that we can be more prepared and know that it will be Ok, as well as what pitfalls to avoid while we ourselves are going through the process and our own journey's x :-)
"Take failure as a data" 💕
I'm so glad you shared this. I feel like social media has been romanticizing entrepreneurship. I had to share the truth about it on my page. You offered a lot of great advice. Thanks for being honest.
I totally agree with the opinion that we are unique
Amazing
You give such energy to keep improvement my accent 😭💞
So true. These are the things that I am experiencing and getting through now.😂
First of all, your videos are great and you are wonderful at all! And now I just want to mention some odd thing and that is the way you speak your language. To be more clear, I learn English and I can understand everything you say no matter how fast you speak and it means a lot to me 😂 You make my listening practise more enjoyable and thank you for that...
But your content is the number 1 thing I am here 😊
i m always waiting for your videos
your videos always inspiring how to live life u r supppapp dii
Can you let me know more about your podcast - how you got into it? What equipment you have at home and need etc?
Look up “Lavendaire how to podcast” and you’ll find that video!
Hey these were so helpful. Could create a video on how you created your brand name and tips on how to create one. 🙂
I explained how & why I chose "Lavendaire" here! bit.ly/2UW3cgq
PS. I love the art in the background. Where is it from?
That last piece of advice is so true but can be so frustrating! My boyfriend and I started a band four years ago and it is so hard to find other people that care as much as we do about it. We are currently in a phase of looking for a new bandmate. Any other videos you would suggest on this topic? Thanks! Always love your videos btw!
Thank you Aileen for such a good tips.Only the one who experienced the most can talk about this. Keep doing what you do, I will always supporting you. I don't know if you read this comment huhu. But I wish you read this.
Thank you 💜
You're welcome 😍
谢谢Aileen 带给我的力量。已经关注你一年了，从今年年初偶然间关注你，就被你深深吸引和影响。也许你也是黄皮肤，也许你的价值观和我一样，所以，就像吸引力法则所说的，我们都会吸引来思维震动频率一样的人。我远在中国，但感觉你就在我身边。非常期待你的每一期视频和播客，谢谢你带给我的希望～Send you the most love 💕
My favorite one was not to take your mistakes personally.
Thank you Aileen for sharing those lessons 💞💞 There are some that I'm applying Naturally 😄 and the other part are new to me 😊 For the Artist of Life Workbook I purchased the softcopy and printed Today 😍😍 the outcome looks so pretty because I ran out of white papers and printed part 1part with different color papers. I'm so happy eventhough it was by accident 😂 I'm so excited to start using the Workbook 😍 Send you much love from Oman 💞💞
cute!! Love how the unexpected works out sometimes :)
I literally just downloaded Marie's book yesterday! Coincidence? I dont think so 😁
Big fan from India...

"You set the standard." I think that's my favorite lesson from this.
