Some things get easier the longer you’ve been a solopreneur. But not everything. This week, we look at navigating the very real, very persistent headwinds.
For me an aspect is recognizing that there are days when I'm not in the right "mood"/"zone"/whatever for certain tasks and if possible, leave them to the next day. Often time the next day I can get that task done in a tenth of the time it would have taken me when I'm not "feeling it". Of course, it's not always possible, there are deadlines and stuff, but trying to leave a bit of slack is priceless for me.
Great observation, Roland. Yes, the ability to say “Not today” is so valuable. Some days things flow easily, other days it’s molasses. Building in that slack time is essential. Thanks for sharing your experience.
