START UP: STAYING FOCUSED

The word #GirlBoss can have many meanings attached to it but all of them can result to one big translation, being the boss of your own life. Simply put, you answer to no one but you. As sweet and relaxing this may sound but more or less it comes with so much responsibilities you wish you had someone to report to and call in sick.

As a business owner and running it on a daily basis and having all this time to my hands, just waiting to schedule it the way I want, it can really be distracting.  It truly needs an extra level of discipline to do it all in a well thought manner.

Basic tools to stay focused on your daily life as a business owner

- Plan your week ahead
- Write down everything you are to do each day at least a night before
- Start with small and easy tasks and finish with the heavier, time consuming tasks
- Plan your meals early, by doing this you will avoid wasting more time thinking about whether to have  grilled cheese or plain burger
- Stay hydrated, this will increase your efficiency with clear mind
- For every hour, rest at least five to ten minutes. Use this time to check your social media accounts and if a client needs a quick reply.
- Sleep well, sleeping well will help you to stay more  focused the next day.
- I would say drink lots of Coffee but I do not do this, if this helps you stay focused longer please comment below...

There are many ways to stay focused that work differently to different people. These few have helped me for a long time to be in line. Feel free to share some tips on what makes you stay and keep your head on the game...until then...
