Don't Worry, You Can Fix Your Business

I am struggling with the day of the week; working from home with kids is stressful. I feel like saying star date log 04083445 (hopefully, you Star Trek fans appreciate my humor). If you think too much about what is happening with the Pandemic or watch the news for the daily death counts….you will get overwhelmed. Not to mention the regular stuff you need to handle. It’s not easy trying to pay everyone, be strong for your kids, and stay upbeat for your team, as you start get concerned about wrinkles forming from all of the worrying you're doing.

This is the holiest week in the Christian calendar. Remember that God watches over us all. His love never changes, so stop worrying. Start planning for life after the Coronavirus….and check out my article 32 Ways to Save Your Business.
