    Sometimes people don't realize that when you own a business, you live, eat and breath it 24/7. hah

      @creationslandscapedesigns 6 лет назад +6

      hahaha so true. Some days I ate nothing more than a cucumber for breakfast. You sacrifice for the biz and if I could go back I would do it all over again.

    It is so inspiring for a person at the beginning of her career to see such a driven person. It inspires, it motivates, it makes you work harder to accomplish your vision. Being in the design business and watching you makes me spend more and more time planning design related moments, business opportunities. Thank you and I adore you. ❤️

    I LOVE watching your videos on Monday's, it's like Monday Motivation! What programs do you use for your business?! I would love to see a video with your team, showing us their process at your company. Or even just sharing the best programs for your business that have helped keep your business organized.

    @CM-yo9jk 6 лет назад +7

    I needed to hear that bit today, when you said that business is essentially solving one problem/challenge and then moving onto the next......I have just been getting a bit overwhelmed lately and needed reminding that business is all part of the ride.

    @RachelSLee 6 лет назад +14

    Having my own online business can be very tiring at times. But if you know how to have fun and give time to yourself, you will see that everything is worth it. Every day is a problem to solve, we will learn from it and eventually, will teach us to move forward to be better than yesterday.

    • @michaelanthonymeneses1334
      @michaelanthonymeneses1334 6 лет назад

      I agree with that! It is very tiring to manage a business. Some time for rest is definitely needed for fun and rest!

    I'm really grateful to have found your channel randomly here in YT. What you shared on this video resonates to me so well as a design + construction practitioner / entrepreneur. Thanks for all you do to share these wonderful experiences especially the wisdom that comes with them.
    PS I really hope I'd get to meet & sit down with you someday :) You're an awesome woman in the field that I am now looking up to. All the best Karin & the team! I am looking forward to creating an all-women team too in the future.

    I love that you give your staff creative room to be who they are. Tattoos and clothing. I’m sure not feeling restricted allows them to feel like they can be true to themselves and your company. Very lucky ❤️

  • @kathrinschmidt-ks-wohndesi584
    @kathrinschmidt-ks-wohndesi584 6 лет назад +3

    Hey Karin, you are so inspiring and give us so much to think of. What comes to my mind seeing this video is, what is the real purpose why you want to step back from Project work??? Isn´t this the lifeline of your business? Isn´t your expertise and your eye for design the reason that clients want to work with you? I´m really sure that you have great Designers in your team that are all very talented in their unique ways.... but that would still not be you when you don´t get your hands on these designs or am i thinking in the wrong direction. I just can´t follow the thought that giving away these main competence is serving your business as your individual masterpiece that you created. Or is your focus only running an extremly successful firm and not pushing forward your own design style and ideas? I would really love to hear your thoughts on that. Maybe i got something wrong here. Keep up what you´re doing and i really appreciate that we can be part of it by watching your content. :) XX

  • @cindylikersa9411
    @cindylikersa9411 6 лет назад +2

    I really love if you did a video on how you started the business, and how you learnt the trade, I’m thinking of choosing interior design at uni but I’m unsure wether I should go straight into an interior design apprenticeship to get hands on experience, I’m curious to how you started, thank you Xxx

    DITL videos is like research and information gathering, it's real things happening in real time (almost). I like how it also inspires the topics that you then talk about in your videos. Seeing is Believing but Doing gives Results and you totally embody the principles that you talk about, we literally can see you walk the talk.
    Great Instastories as well :-)

    Karin, have you heard of the E-myth formula...? I really think you would find it useful from stepping back from the business, also there is a lady named Dani Johnson who said she went from 80- hours per week down to 20 by delegating, etc. That outfit combo is #BOMB. #IHitTheLikeButton

I have been watching your channel, great work by the way, so Im trying to open my architecture office right now and Im have some problems with organization.

I am your nee subscriber and so far I have liked couple of your videos and continue to watch all of them. I am in a similar field of Interior- Designing here in India and seeing your videos makes me give little bit more effort in what I do to excel in it at the same time enjoy what I do. I like your sense of style as well as it comes across as a strong business women. I want to be like that one day soon. Power to you Karin. Luv ya.

One of them can be promising a project in a tight deadline and that might mean you actually might take time from your personal life or might mean stressing if your team don't act fast .
