All In
This book has truly excellent advice on being an entrepreneur - not "practical" things like how to manage your finances, but more general ideas about the independent lifestyle. I loved recognizing parts of myself in the examples, as well as piecing together Arlene's story through the tidbits she shares.
Key messages from this book include:
- It's okay to be all in - that is, to devote all of your time and energy to your business. Work/life balance doesn't have to be the goal.
- People might not always understand and that's okay.
- Failing at traditional pursuits doesn't make you a bad person, it means you have a different path to follow. Even Arlene Dickinson has failed at many things.
- It's hard to be the partner of an entrepreneur, and many entrepreneurs struggle with romantic relationships.
- Success brings its own set of problems, such as not hearing honest opinions and not knowing who you can trust.
- Entrepreneurs are usually stubborn, with a deep desire to do things their own way.
- Entrepreneurs are like artists, expressing themselves through their business.
- Everyone sometimes has anxiety, gets stressed, and fears failure. Yo

Reinvention
Every one of us will feel stuck at some point in our lives. One day, you recognize that you have followed a path—personal or professional—that suddenly seems closed off or unfulfilling. Whether it’s a relationship that doesn’t connect in the way it used to, or a job that started out being exciting but now feels unrewarding, suddenly you look up from your life and realize there is something else you want to do or to be. You’re ready for a reinvention.
Applying business principles to her personal life helped Dickinson figure out very quickly where she wanted to go and how to get there. Having a clear set of practical steps to follow kept her on track when emotions threatened to derail her progress.
In Reinvention, Dickinson shares her blueprint for:
- locating your sense of purpose
- realistically evaluating your strengths
- assessing opportunities

Lessons from the Den: Succeeding at Business and Being an Entrepreneur +
In this talk, one of Canada's most high profile business women distills a lifetime of experience to reveal everything you need to know — and do — to start, to run, and to grow a great business. (A customized clip from the hit show Dragons' Den provides buzz; though that’s just a starting point.)
On stage, as on the small screen, Dickinson displays a palpable and infectious belief in the entrepreneurial spirit; she reminds us of the major contributions Canadians have made to international business and the entrepreneurial traditio
Arlene Dickinson &#; A Business Tycoon in Its Truest Sense
Women are powerful, invincible, and resilient. Without millions of chants encouraging the existence of women every day, a special day like International Women&#;s Day is indeed a necessity to celebrate their achievements and accomplishments in every walks of life.
Whether teachers, economists, homemakers, economists, or business tycoons, women have made this world a better place to live with their infinite power, faith, and determination. With enough ability to break the shackles of patriarchy, women rise above societal roadblocks every day, making them a robust force to be reckoned with in today&#;s world.
On this International Women&#;s Day, we celebrate and rejoice in the economic, cultural, political, and social accomplishments of women worldwide.
