For small businesses and young enterprises, size represents both challenge and opportunity: while it's difficult to get a foothold in the market, relatively new players also have the agility to scale up quickly. Not only that, but they usually don't face the burden of modernizing legacy systems. But what happens when that growth plateaus and there are no obvious suspects?

In the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives, it's easy to lose sight of time. One moment, we're immersed in our daily tasks, and the next, we look up to find that the year is almost over. Despite being busy, we might realize that we don't feel a sense of accomplishment. This phenomenon is not only prevalent in the business world but also in our personal lives. Herein lies the importance of self-reflection, a practice that should be embraced annually, quarterly, monthly, weekly, and even daily.

I am an unabashed admirer of the French omni-retailer Sephora and the professional beauty supplies giant Sally Beauty, not just because I am one of their customers — but for how they have positioned their brands through diversification and advanced technology solutions. As both a CMO and a consumer, I have a unique view of how these two industry leaders have used constant innovation as the basis of their success. Sephora has a history as a trailblazer.

(This article originally appeared on Entrpreneur.com)The mentality of the dotcom era of the late 1990s and early 2000s was all about hard work, grit and a willingness to prove ourselves. It was such an exciting time, and it didn't matter what company we worked for; we just wanted to be part of the movement. And it was a movement — a period marked by extreme growth and the spirit of the possible. We wore many hats and didn't care about job titles.

La mentalidad de la era puntocom de finales de los 90 y principios de los 2000 se enfocaba en el trabajo duro, la determinación y la voluntad de demostrar nuestro valor. Fue una época emocionante, y no importaba en qué empresa trabajáramos; solo queríamos ser parte del movimiento. Fue un período marcado por un crecimiento extremo y el espíritu de "hacerlo posible". Teníamos muchos roles y no nos importaba el nombre de los puestos.

But, as you get older, it seems that society teaches you to see yourself—and those around you—differently. Beauty brands have come a long way since then.

Afrontémoslo, puede ser desalentador escuchar la palabra "no" a lo largo de tu carrera, especialmente cuando buscas la oportunidad de demostrar tu valía. Pero ahí es donde entran en juego la resiliencia, el trabajo duro, la determinación y la voluntad. Cuando solicité una oportunidad en una pequeña empresa de marketing como recién graduada de la universidad, tenía los ojos puestos en una vacante de Coordinadora de Marketing.
