It took just over a month for my family to sell their business. We sold the business to a much larger corporation and I am now the sole owner and CEO of my own small business. I am also passionate about helping others in the business world.
I’m not sure what the next big thing is going to be, but I am excited to have the chance to help others in the business world. I’ve always been interested in the corporate world but never truly felt that what I wanted to do with my life was a real job. Now I don’t think I’m ever going to have to worry about what to do with my life.
Well, most of us have a day job at one point or another. But for most of us, we have to work on a very specific task every single day. You cannot be a full-time entrepreneur unless you are also a full-time employee. And if you are a full-time employee, you can’t be an entrepreneur.
The fact of the matter is, a lot of business owners are just “working from home,” because there’s just no way that you can be a successful business owner, unless you work from home! The key to being successful “working from home” is to work on a routine. Work on a routine that you can consistently work over and over again.
So if you want to get a good idea of the kind of routine you should be working on, make a list of every single thing you do at work. It is so important to have a routine that you can repeat and it should always be a regular and consistent process. You have to be consistent with that routine. If you can’t consistently work that routine, then you’ll never get anything done at all.
If you really wanted to get a decent idea of the kind of routine you should be working on, put a few things on that list. Most of it is really just being a good person, but it helps to have a sense for what others do. You can always come to a few areas of your routine and say, “What would you have done differently?” or “How would you have handled that?” It helps you see what is really important to you.
What you do when you can’t get a sense for what you’re going to do next, is to ask around for ideas. There’s no way to write out a list of every possible thing you could do, but you can always make a list of the things that are important to you. It’s not what you do, but how you think about it and how you do it.
It doesn’t help when you get overwhelmed with the sheer number of things that are possible to do. But it does help if you can make a list of the things that are important to you. When you have a list of what you are good at and what you want to be good at, you can see what you want to focus your energy on and what you are good at.
I think its best to prioritize your list. Focus on what you are most passionate about. Then, once you have it, figure out which things you think you are good at and what you want to do.
One of the ways I manage my time better is by taking a class on Time Management. This class is very helpful for me because it teaches me how to use the “T” word.
