Oprah is a savvy business woman and an inspiration for women entrepreneurs. Here are 5
lessons which we can learn from her life, wisdom and work:
Oprah is perhaps one the most phenomenal and iconic figures of modern times for many
reasons: she beat the odds of illegitimacy, poverty, sexual abuse and racism to be where she is
today: a self-made billionaire, a woman who is richer in wealth but more so in values. A true
embodiment of a spiritual entrepreneur, Oprah is a role model for aspiring women
entrepreneur due to the unique and inspiring way she choose to think, work, and live. Here are
5 ways entrepreneurs can draw true inspiration from her words, wisdom and work:
Work for It
Oprah continuously worked in the direction of her dream. She says that she knew from an early
age that she was ‘responsible for herself’ and that she ‘had to make it good’. Her belief is: ‘The
big secret in life is there is no secret. Whatever your goal. You can get there if you’re willing to
work.’ And she continues to work hard despite crossing the retirement age.
Oprah is a living example that if we all choose to live our lives as consciously, meticulously and
purposefully and spiritually as Oprah, we won’t become billionaires but will experience the
same breakthrough, ‘Oprah moment’ in our lives that can help us become better and successful
women entrepreneurs. I have been teaching aspiring business women and entrepreneurs and
Wealth Manifesting through cultivating a Wealthy Mindset for years. You can be one of them.
