Let's face it: entrepreneurial life can be risky business! More often than not, it's your money on the line – and it's up to you alone to ensure that everything is being done to keep the business afloat. On the flip side, being employed by a large corporation can provide great stability – at the cost of some of your personal freedom. There is no one correct way to live your life, and your preference will be based on your situation, lifestyle, and personality. Would you rather take the risk and be your own boss, or work for someone else?

“I want to speak to the manager” – What if I told you… I AM the manager??? [The best part about being self employed is ______]

Over 70% of entrepreneurs work more than 40 hours per week. Can you relate? This is one of the toughest parts about being self employed. So many things to do, and so little time to do them… Have you ever considered that you may want to improve your time management skills? Here’s a little tip: Give up multitasking entirely. Working on two things simultaneously is a great way to finish neither. Instead, make a list of priorities and focus on completing those one by one. Turn off your phone while you're working and respond to those emails at the end of the day. You’ll be amazed at how your productivity skyrockets :)
