2. Wake Up and Work
It has been scientifically proven that people are at
their most productive a few hours after they wake up.
Use these waking hours to get a majority of work done.

3. Foster Positivity
The life of an entrepreneur is not easy, and can be filled with a
lot of disappointment. Surround yourself with positive quotes,
people, and energy to avoid being dragged down.

4. Meditate
I know what you're thinking: 'I'm too busy!' Of course you are;
you're running your own company. However, taking a few
minutes out of your day for mindfulness will allow you to focus
more clearly and take your work a day at a time.

5. Know What You Need to Make
Income can be a great motivator, especially if you figure out
how much money you have to make per day to reach your
goals. Knowing this amount may be the boost you need to keep
going.

6. Remember the Reason
What prompted you to begin your business? It is tough to keep
track of this in the daily grind, but taking a moment in
stressful times to remember why you started can keep you
going.

7. Set Realistic Goals
Right when you begin working, make a to-do list for the day.
Really think about it, and make sure it is realistic that you can
check off all of those boxes by the end of the day.

8. Stay Healthy
Make exercising and eating well a priority. It's easy to ignore
your health when you are busy, but taking care of your body
will give you better tools to take care of your business.
