4 Top tips to keep motivated in your small business

Running a small business is tough - you are the one responsible for everything and making sure your business is a success - let’s be honest, sometimes it is overwhelming!

When you feel overwhelmed, your motivation dips because it all just feels like too much. You don’t know where to start or what to focus on first.

If you are feeling like this, here are 4 top tips to keep motivated in your small business:

1. Think about why you set up your small business in the first place - your why, your vision for the future, flexibility - whatever it is, connect back to that original place of excitement and possibility. Remind yourself of your why and your vision every day, and especially when things feel tough to remind yourself why you are doing this and give yourself a motivation boost.

2. Take regular breaks - even if you have got limited time to actually do your tasks, still make sure that you take regular breaks when you are working even if it is just for a few minutes. Having that time to rest means that you will be more productive because you’ve had that rest.

3. Set goals - set goals for yourself to achieve in your business and link these back to your why and your vision for the future. Setting a big goal and then breaking it down into achievable weekly/monthly tasks is the best way to make sure that the goal is achieved. Bonus points for connecting your goal back to your why and your vision!
