Take A Moment To Be Thankful
You did cool stuff this year
Celebrating Your Wins
It’s Thanksgiving time in the US; but regardless of where you live in the world, it’s never a bad time to take a moment to reflect on the things you are thankful for and celebrate the things that you have accomplished. Whether you finally decided to start your business after years of thinking about it, or you booked a big new client, or you hired your first official employee, or you created a new personal life boundary to protect yourself from burnout; we guarantee that there is something that everyone can take a moment to reflect on and be proud of for accomplishing.
And Being Boss will be the first to tell you: running a business isn’t always puppies, rainbows, and milkshakes (just ask Emily and Kathleen). There are times when every boss thinks about quitting because things have gotten too hard; but in between all of those fires that it feels like you are constantly putting out, there are also the moments where you remember why you became your own boss to begin with: the freedom, getting to make your own rules, the option to work wherever and whenever you want, and the ability to do what you love.
So take some time this week to think back to your wins, however big or small they were. Remember why you decided to take the leap into entrepreneurship (or why you are considering it) and give yourself a crisp high five.
And from Emily and the entire team at Being Boss…Happy Thanksgiving!
