Find Your True North: Navigate Business with Clarity, Not Chaos

As the days get nicer, my mind goes to my summertime fun.

Sailing…

I started sailing when I was about 8.

I started racing when I was in my 20s.

I’ve taken a boat ride in every country I’ve visited.

Sailing is in my blood.

Pehr Tranchell was captain for the Swedish East India Company.

There are so many great analogies for sailing to help entrepreneurs grow their business.

This week I will be sharing my love of sailing and how to use it to grow your business.

As an entrepreneur, you didn’t start this journey to hustle yourself into burnout or constantly chase fleeting wins.

You started because you felt called — to create impact, live in alignment, and chart a course toward freedom and fulfillment.

But let’s be honest…

Even with the best strategies and a beautiful vision board, you can still feel lost at sea.

That’s what happens when you’re sailing without a compass.

Vibrant Business Tip

Your True North Is Inner Alignment

In sailing, True North is a fixed point — a steady guide no matter what the waves are doing.

In business, your True North is your inner clarity — your deepest sense of direction and purpose.

When your thought are noisy, outdated, or fear-based, you drift. You chase trends. You over-effort.

But when your mindset is aligned?

Even a headwind becomes an opportunity to course-correct with grace.

Let Go of the Inner Anchor

Most entrepreneurs are dragging an invisible anchor behind their boat.

Limiting beliefs like:

• “I have to do it all myself.”
• “Making more money means working harder.”
• “If I slow down, I’ll lose momentum.”

These thoughts feel like truth — but they’re just well-worn stories that no longer serve you.

You don’t need to upgrade your to-do list.

You need to upgrade your internal navigation system.

Adjust Your Sails — Don’t Fight the Wind

You can't control the economy. Or the algorithm. Or what your competitors are doing.

But you can control how you think.

And that’s where the power is.

When you shift the thoughts that drive your choices, you start creating from alignment instead of reaction.

That’s when business gets lighter.

More magnetic.

More you.

Set Your Business Sails

My method, based on the AIRR Method — Awareness, Interrupt, Release, and Replace — is like trimming your sails for optimal wind.

Once your inner compass is calibrated, you’ll:

Attract more aligned clients
Make faster, clearer decisions
Create with ease instead of pressure
Turn resistance into momentum

Vibrant Business Takeaway

So I’ll Ask You: What’s Your True North?

Not your revenue goal.

Not your Instagram follower count.

But your real True North:

• Is it spaciousness?
• Deep impact?
• Freedom to create?
• Living in full alignment?

And if you're ready to stop drifting and start navigating with clarity—I’m your compass.
