Mindset #15 - 6 Ways to Stay Motivated as an Entrepreneur

GOOD MORNING STEEMIT!

After catching up with fellow #teamaustralia legend @bulleth for a beer in Sydney last night, I'm back and motivated to end the blogging week strong.

It's easy to lose motivation if your immediate social circle has no interest in Steemit or the crypto trading community as a whole and building these relationships on your shared interest is great to keep you focused.

Anyway, after the response I got for my last '6 traits' blog post, I wanted to come at you again with some short and sharp lists. This type of content easily transfers across to Twitter (give @forexbrokr a follow over there too!) so I feel it has double the value for my audience.

Let's do this!




Integrate your work into your lifestyle.

While you should work to live, not live to work… it’s still a lot easier to stay motivated if you don’t feel like you’re working at all.

Manage your own expectations.

You can’t allow a craving for perfection to consume you. Hitting realistic expectations will keep you on a high.

The grass isn’t always greener on the other side.

You’re here because it’s your passion. Don’t change paths on a whim because something looks better. It isn’t.

Scratch your itch with a hobby unrelated to your business.

If you have a wider interest, it doesn’t have to become your work. Enjoy it as a hobby or volunteer instead.

Deliberately take vacations.

A change from your usual routine gives you an opportunity to see things differently. Re-invigorate your motivation with time away.

Don’t lie to yourself. Face the music.

Who are you pleasing by lying to yourself? This is your business and your business alone. If you have a problem, face it head on.




How do you stay motivated?
