<p><strong>Keep your Purpose and Passion at the fore: Don’t let the Nay Sayers take you off course</strong></p> <p>Two Natural Ladies share a great paradigm from Lauren &amp; Annette’s Weekly Rocket</p> <p>‘In 1889, the "iron lady" was opened to the world. She was the tallest structure in the world for over 40 years and not everyone loved her.</p> <p>Of course, we are talking about Eiffel Tower in Paris and many artists and poets slated it as 'useless, barbaric and monstrous", saying it was a hateful column of bolted sheet metal that would dominate Paris like a gigantic black smokestack".</p> <p>The Eiffel Tower has gone on to be one of the most recognised structures in the world, an icon of France and the most-visited paid monument, with over 250 million visitors since it was opened.</p> <p>This just goes to prove, that if you build something iconic, do not worry if not everyone loves it. You are going to have haters. It's more important that you have a vision for your brand, a purpose and passion, and that you create something monumental, that is easily recognised.’ &nbsp;From Lauren and Annette Weekly Rocket.</p> <p>Jo &amp; Vicki share some of their insights from their discovery sessions with their coach, Geoff Kelly.
