I have been very busy the past few months trying to take my own advice for the current economic recession– brushing up on old skills and learning new ones; building relationships; researching new markets; volunteering; trying to generate new business etc.
While this is a great way to go in my opinion, it dawned on me the other day that no matter the economic situation there will always be things to do as a small business owner – you will either be running around trying to meet demand during boom time or running around trying to make the best during slow downs and still undertaking every aspect of the running and managing your business.
With so much to do, I find myself forgetting that I am the boss and therefore am in control of my workload and schedule and that I can take time off or reschedule things to do fun stuff with my family or just relaxing and do something else other than work and I am positive I am not alone.While business ownership can be very fulfilling, it can also be overwhelming at times to the point that the benefits can be lost – at least temporarily.
As always, we welcome you comments and contributions. Feel free to share your story.
Until next time,
Sirra Ndow
