When things go south, I maintain my focus and keep showing up every day by surrounding myself with positive people or things (books, pictures I like, music, etc). I remind myself where I want to be in 5 to 10 years and why that is important.

There are times when you need to take a break and relax but this should only be if you know for a fact that you have been pushing yourselves too far or working hours that exceeds most peoples energy level (15-20 hours per day, several days in a row).

There are other times, you just need to remind yourself why you are doing what you are doing. Putting food on the table, saving for retirement, paying for the training that will establish the foundation for your business to be self-sustaining. Whatever it may be, know the reason you do what you do. it will help you get back on track.

If you have not already done so, create a long-term plan or a picture dream board but above all else, never quit. A break is fine for a little while, but never quit. Make sure you know why you are in a business to begin with.

It's really true how many times we don't tell ourselves we need a break. I need to get out I need to settle my head. I need one. Little peace and calm. But most of the time work is the concern they don't let us abstract and many times we make the mistake of reaching exhaustion. That's when it's harder to get out. If you can't get by yourself, ask for help, ask for advice. Sometimes it's better to lose a few days in life, and come back with more strength and energy than to keep insisting and getting exhausted.

I loved creating vision boards a few years back. I haven't been doing them lately, but I still print things out all the time and stick them on my walls around my desk.

Always good reminders for sure.

Yes being clear about the reasons I am doing something is real important. I have to remind myself frequently. Sometimes everyday.
