Remember to have fun with your business

Okay, so we know that entrepreneurs have a reputation for being workaholics - it’s often a necessity to put in some seriously long hours in the early days of building any business. But it’s also important to ensure that burnout doesn’t happen as that’s a surefire way to lose drive, momentum and ultimately fail to reach goals. So, the best way of avoiding that situation is to remember to have fun with your business. Build in regular breaks into your working week to refresh your mind, body and spirit. Bring some fun into the business through new project brainstorming. Or find fun new ways of developing and experimenting with new products. It’s all about keeping it fresh, remembering why you became an entrepreneur in the first place, and making time to have fun in your business. As Richard Branson says, “If you aren’t having fun, you are doing it wrong. If you feel like getting up in the morning to work on your business is a chore, then it’s time to do something else.”
