Don’t forget why you wanted to start a business in the first place.
Whether it’s following a passion or having more control over your time to devote to family, why you started down this road in the first place is something always to keep top of mind. It’s easy to get carried away and forget what it was you wanted from your own business. I, for example, was driven by quality-of-life factors, especially time off for my other passion — travel. At times, temporary sacrifices may be truly necessary, but it pays to be conscious of when you’re in danger of permanently shelving the very thing you wanted most.
