If you own a business, you are probably wearing numerous hats and running around like a crazy person to meet all of your responsibilities and deadlines. This year is brand new… are you already exhausted? How are sales going?
If any of this sounds familiar, you are not alone. Here are a few tips to re-group and be more successful than ever…
“What? I don’t have time to take a break. Are you nuts?!”
Trust me. I know how you feel. But things can get so busy that you can lose track of what you’re trying to accomplish.
Turn off your computer for a full day and get outside. Take a walk. See a movie. Work out. Watch television. Hang out with friends and family. Cook….You get the picture. Take one full day away from your work, and do something you love to do.
And I know this can be very difficult, but give it a try. Your mind will open up, and you’ll end up being more refreshed when you turn the computer back on. Plus, you may just solve a problem or think of some, new business ideas on your “day off.”
You need some time away from phone calls, e-mails, text messages, etc. to truly be successful. Either get up early, or find a quiet place where you will not be disturbed. It’s essential to have some peace and quiet so you can focus on what truly needs to be done with your business.
Without interruptions, you can organize your tasks, schedule your time accordingly, increase your focus, and actually get more done.
If sales are down, look at taking a different direction. Think of how you can help others. Can you introduce your associates for future endeavors, partner with a charity, give away some products or services, or do something else?
As Brian Tracy says,
Help others. Your focus will change, and sales with start to improve. More important, you’ll become a better person in the process!
If you are in a rut or overwhelmed with your business, stop and take a look at what’s going on. Go to a quiet place and think about your business. Then, spend some time away from the office to get some R and R and actually have some fun. Also, start focusing on helping others. You’ll see your business change for the better, and you’ll feel both physically and mentally better in the process. It’s not just a way to recharge. It’s a way to supercharge you.. and your business!
What are you going to do today to take some time to yourself and supercharge your business?
