Managing a business is akin to being on a rollercoaster! One minute you’re having the most amazing high only to swoop into a stomach-wrenching all-time low! So, is it really possible to feel good about your business?

All businesses experience some sort of challenges and even failure. If you are facing particular challenges, work hard to understand what is failing and what you are going to do about it. You have a choice to stick at it or cut your losses and walk away. Even the most successful brands started out as an idea that had to be explored and tested. Ensure you learn from your mistakes and do things differently next time. Growing with your business, even during the difficult times, can give you some satisfaction when you learn new ways to approach situations and projects.

Always remember why you chose to become your own boss. Remind yourself daily why you are doing this and what your goals are. Usually mums set up their own business to have more time with the family whilst providing a financial contribution. If all your time is suddenly taken up with work and you’re not making money, it is time to evaluate what is going on in your business. It doesn’t mean you have to give up, on the contrary you should be assessing what is working and what isn’t, and adapting your business so it realigns with your personal goals.

Whenever you judge the success of your business, do so by evaluating your goals and whether you are achieving them. Ask yourself how you measure your success: is it how much flexibility you have in your life or how much money you make? Decide what your personal goals are for your business and whether you are accomplishing them.

Feeling good about your business is about taking the rough with the smooth. It is about being clear and honest about the performance of your business, what you want to achieve and what you’re willing to do to make it a success. The highs and lows enable you to learn and prosper, which is surely enough to feel great about what you do!
