Other Added - Don't Neglect This Part of Your Business
An individual?s life is a concatenation of moments, experiences, hopes, regrets, memories and changes that along with accomplishments and failures make a person who they are. When said person is forced to summarize and reduce all these experiences so that they all fit neatly onto one page the task is decidedly no
So while it may seem simplistic to make some small changes, just because it is simple doesn’t mean it is easy. So is it worth the effort? Absolutely!

Look them over; give some thought to them and adapt them to your own selling efforts.1. If the product you're selling is something your customer can hold in his h
Taking care of your business includes taking care of you! Think about it, if you’re run down and exhausted how effective can you be?
It will require time to take care of yourself, I know – you don’t have any extra time. But it is costing you time when you continue to push yourself and neglect your needs.
It’s the many small ways you neglect yourself that when added up can become a really big weight on your shoulders. And if you live with that big weight for a long period of time, you may start to feel the life draining out of you.
This is similar to continuing to try to cut down a tree with a dull saw versus taking time out to sharpen the saw (Stephen Covey’s 7th Habit of Highly Effective People) and thereby cutting down the tree faster and easier than using the dull saw.
We all seek a balanced life and the truth is that some periods will require that you work more than other times. The one thing to commit to, even when you are busy, is to taking care of you – the business owner. Without whom, there may be no business.
What can you do today, right now, to start taking care of yourself? Here are some ideas to get you going:
- Take small, frequent breaks throughout the day
- Ask for help if you’re stuck (someone you know probably knows the answer)
- Outsource/Delegate more
- Take time to eat a healthy breakfast and lunch
- Engage in some kind of physical activity on a regular basis
- Take at least one day, out of a seven day week, to do nothing but fun stuff and recharge your batteries

Over the weekend I found myself in a small town of about 118 people. It was early in the morning and I wanted to fix breakfast. My idea for breakfast that morning was eggs and potatoes fixed my way. Going to a restaurant was out of the question. I had a skillet ready to heat with a few eggs, cheese but no potatoe
