3. Have A Short “To-Do” List: When I am at the coffee shop, I have a list of 2-3 things to get done in that sitting. On the weekends, the list may include 4-5 items. I do not start the second task until the first task is complete.
4. Own and Release Your Doubt and Fear into a Journal: The journey to entrepreneurship can be a long, lonely one, especially if you are working your business on the side. When your goal seems so far way, there is a lot of room for self-doubt, negativity, and “thinking small” to invade your mind.
When I am feeling like my progress toward my goals is not coming fast enough or big enough, I own those feelings by writing them down. The act of writing (and crying) allows me to release the negativity and put into the ether. And in many cases, I almost instantly feel a sense of relief.
5. Give Yourself Permission To Not Be Perfect In Every Area of Your Life: Do you know how much willpower it takes to focus and stay disciplined on such a lofty goal as self-employment? When you are giving your all in one part of your life, you may find that other things—big and small— get neglected, including your household chores and your friends. But remember this: you can buy paper plates or invest in a housekeeper. You can tell your friends that you are trying to live your dreams and that your isolation is temporary. Your real friends with dreams of their own will definitely understand.
6. Find Others Doing The Same Thing As You: When you join a community of budding entrepreneurs, you feel less isolated and more accountable. You don’t want to be the only one in your group that is still talking about success instead of being about it. In order to save face, you have to produce.
