Crawling towards the finish line at the end of 2020, I was working 4.5 days a week but mostly 4, indulging in a little self care on a Friday. The year 2020, certainly took a heavy emotional toll. Now that we are well into the start of 2021 I am finding that my energy levels are still quite low and I am finding it difficult to get back into the rhythm of actively seeking to grow my business, keeping on the bad habits of 2020. I have the words of a former business partner ringing in my ears, “businesses aren’t built nine to five Monday to Friday” and feel that I need a little push along to get my mojo back. In a lot of respects I know what I need to do, but I need to remove the block that is stopping me from doing it. It is time for me to pick up my all time favourite business book again, David Maister’s Strategy and the Fat Smoker.
