Why Challenges are Good for Business

Challenges keep us entrepreneurs nimble and on our toes. If you’re always looking for the next challenge, you’ll always be prepared for what comes your way. But can challenges actually serve as business inspiration? I think so. 

One of the biggest fears that people have about going into business for themselves is the uncertainty factor. You can work really hard and wind up with nothing to show for it. Finding a way to embrace the challenge of uncertainty keeps you tenacious, creative, and persistent. 

Consider the gym, for example. You start going and you don't feel anything but pain. It's hard to lift weights, even harder to run, and you spend the next two days sore and tired. But you go again. And again. And again. Until you finally start seeing a difference. You've lost a few pounds, gained some muscle, and you have more energy. But all that took work without results - at first.  

Would you stop there? Probably not. 

Exercising doesn't lead to success overnight. That's true with entrepreneurship too. The small, daily tasks make a difference, even when all you see is the challenge. Each time you reach outside of your comfort zone, you've grown in some way - and so has your business. 

As an entrepreneur, it’s smart to be looking for the next big challenge, because this is what keeps you sharp and current.  If you are interested in learning more business tips, contact  AdvancingWithUs.
