3 Things I wish I knew Before I Started That Could Help You Now

The journey to becoming a successful business owner is not easy. It’s filled with many unexpected events, changes, obstacles, and so much more.

Any business owner can tell you that there are multiple things they wish they’d known before starting that would’ve made the journey much easier. So here are just some of mine that I’m hoping can help you on your journey!

Not Everyone Is Going To Like You

This was one of the most challenging lessons I learned when I started my business. I was trying so hard to make all of my clients happy that it negatively affected my business and mental health. 

Everybody is different. It’s ok that some people are not going to like you because that means the clients who connect well will be amazing! They will be the ones that are easy to work with and will want to stay with you and your business for a LONG time. 

Why should you force yourself to work with people that don’t vibe well with you? Never forget that your mental health matters first before anything, especially as a business owner. You don’t need to sacrifice yourself for any client. 

Stop Thinking

I know this might not make sense at first, but hear me out.

As business owners, we tend to be stuck in our heads. Even I was stuck in my head at first, causing my business to be slow-moving for the first few months. However, when I started focusing more on my partnerships and investing in my business, everything started going uphill.

I know it’s hard, but it’s essential to try to stay out of your head. Try writing down a short list of what needs to be done for the day, talking to others about your worries, and even taking a small break from your business once in a while.

Business Ownership Isn’t For Everyone

When you become a business owner, you take on ALL of the responsibilities and risks that come with it, especially once you hire employees.

You need to understand all the benefits and concerns of owning a business. If you don’t feel like you’re ready, then you’re most likely not. That’s why not everyone does it.

However, I’m not saying that you can’t be a little bit nervous or unsure about it. As long as you have complete faith in your knowledge and skills and are prepared for all the possible risks, you and your business will be fine. 

I hope these were helpful!
