The Importance of Business Wellness
It’s no secret that our lives can be stressful. Between managing a career, family, social and “me” time, it can be a lot. However, we are forced with finding a way to make it work. This week I want to take a shift in subjects of usual digital marketing topics. I want to talk about business wellness and ways we can increase it in our lives.
When I started Bay Rock, I really didn’t know what to expect. I knew I always wanted a business and that it would be a lot of work. But I wasn’t as prepared how to navigate my life as an entrepreneur.
Business wellness to me is keeping it all “healthy.” Let’s face it, if you have a business, it’s going to be a major part of your life- entrepreneurs must understand this. You have to pay close attention to this.
Business owners can work to improve this in their lives by staying attuned to what’s going on in their lives. It can be very easy to lose track when you have to much going on. Pay attention to how you are feeling and how others around you are feeling. Is your family and friends complaining you aren’t spending enough quality time? Are people noticing that you’ve been overly stressed? Listen to them, chances are they are trying to help you.
Planning out your days and how you spend that time is also helpful. Some people might prefer a physical or digital planner to get it all down. Some other people might find it beneficial to make an actual schedule of their days where they block off time. Whatever it is, it’s key to stay consistent with it. Mapping out your days will help you prioritize your time. It will reduce stress and increase your presence in your life.
Keep reaching those goals but also stay connected to your loved ones and yourself. I think we are seeing a shift in society of people understanding the importance of looking at all this from a holistic standpoint. Don’t overwhelm yourself in one area of your life as it causes you to burn out and lose traction of where you’re going. Keep working hard and spending that much needed time with the people who matter in your life!
