E for Energy as a new business owner

E for Energy


As a new business owner this is a tough one - always on the go - always thinking about things even when I am supposed to be doing other things.

During the first few months of taking on a new client I find myself constantly thinking about the set up, what needs to be done to catch up, what I can do to make things run more smoothly etc etc etc

It's exhausting! 

All the energy needed to manage this is hard to come by but once I have cracked it the feeling is awesome!

As things grow I will be introducing automation https://www.autoentry.com to support my clients and myself - essential for the hardworking bookkeeper.

It's important to have some down-time too and I am getting better at allocating my time so that I do get a day off a week to relax and recharge.

I do love the freedom that being self-employed allows though as I sometimes get an energy dip mid-afternoon and can take a few hours.  Then I am back to it, once refreshed and ready to take on the next challenge.  

This works very well for me.
