If you are an young thriving entrepreneur chances hard you play and work hard. Just like many of us we push ourselves to the limit, we eat late night, party till later, happy hours, travel, meetings and whatever else your personal life requires. Eventually this will all take a toll on your body.
As you move away from your parent’s internal circle of life and have to worry about your car insurance, eating healthier and making financial decisions that are going to affect your day-today and future living.
Many young entrepreneurs skip their meals, ignore daily routines because they feel they can do everything at once.
Here are two things to take under consideration when you are a young entrepreneur
The Value Of Your Time
As an entrepreneur you are responsible for many things and unfortunately at the early stage, if you are not front and center in your business, stuff just doesn’t get done. When you begin to crash, get a cold or wake up with a massive hangover from yesterday’s sales celebration, you have a great chance of missing opportunities and revenue. And that sucks.
Now imagine going on hiatus for a week or so to attend to whatever ailment you have suddenly come down with. I know for me that would totally throw a wrench in my plans.
The Value Of Your Responsibility
I’ve learned the hard way this year that crashing on your responsibilities are no fun. When you start feeling overwhelmed and stressed and start blocking too many responsibilities off your plate they seem to come back and bite you right in the ass.
Making sure you stay on top of your physical and mental health on a daily basis is a strong ingredient towards being successful in business. People love doing business with other strong people and if you start neglecting this, it becomes extremely visible in your appearance, your confidence and your ability to close.
This is a responsibility killer. For you personally, for your company, for your employees if you have any and for those that depend on you busting your ass in a healthy way to deliver on what you need to deliver as a CEO. What value does your being an “A” player have on your company? It should be pretty high at this stage of the game.
