Building and running a business is often a lonely activity if you're a Solopreneur. Unless you are highly self-motivated, laser focused and super committed, it can be demoralising when curveballs hit, or when sales aren’t coming in quickly enough. Business is tough for everyone! There are no quick wins – it’s a marathon not a sprint.

Having moral support whilst you’re on your business journey is an important part of the puzzle. This kind of support isn’t always available from our close family and friends however, so finding likeminded business owners to share the journey with is a key part of reaching your goals.

Comparing your business journey to running a marathon in isolation with no other participants or spectators cheering you on from the roadside is the perfect analogy of what it would feel like, and it helps to visualise how difficult completing the race would be under those conditions. As well as that, not knowing how far you’ve come or how far you have to go would also add to the despair. So having people offer motivation and cheer leading isn’t just a nice to have – it’s essential for business success.

Joining an accountability group is one solution, and the Platespinning Academy Accountability Club does just that. Offering weekly check ins and online co-working sessions, alongside daily prompts and communication to help you stay on track and reach your goals is now available for less than one of your favourite drive thru coffees each week.

We kick things off for Quarter 2 on Monday 31st March – will you be joining? The link is below for more details and sign up

About Nic:

I'm Nic Davies, The Mental Load Mentor. I help business owners get life organised at home, so they can reclaim their headspace, time and energy needed to grow and run a successful business.

I've navigated through adverse times with hard-hitting curveballs that have forced me to re-assess the importance of self-care and having firm boundaries in place, as well as becoming more organised in the day-to-day running of home, business, and life in general.

My mission is to make sure that everyone has an equal opportunity to create a business they love, without feeling held back by household obligations, or adversity. Drawing upon a diverse range of life experience, I'm building an online community that supports anyone who is struggling to balance home life and business together.

Many people have an overwhelming desire to contribute and make the world a better place, and some choose to do that work by building a business that supports that purpose. Building a legacy is more than just running a business however. Whilst we still need to make enough money to live off, building a legacy through business is so much more than just an income. It becomes a way of life and is interwoven into everything you do.

One of the ways to help commit to your legacy and to also let others know what you are doing is by creating a mission statement for your business. This helps to clarify your passion, and also helps you to stay focused for the times when business and life can become difficult, and you wonder whether you’re doing the right thing. Or for when you have difficult decisions to make, you can refer to your mission statement to keep you on track.

Whilst creating a legacy through business takes a huge commitment, it is also an extremely rewarding activity. Being able to help and influence others in a truly positive way is something you cannot put a monetary value on. But being able to run a profitable business whilst also building your legacy in and around that work is a highly coveted sweet spot that many business owners strive for.

Managing and prioritising our own wellbeing whilst already feeling overwhelmed and at capacity can be a tough one to manage alongside our general day to day stresses. Add in the current weight of the world on our shoulders which is unbearably heavy for many people right now, and it can feel an almost impossible task.

With our own personal wellbeing ultimately being OUR responsibility and no one else’s, it’s up to us to put boundaries in place so we don’t feel overwhelmed with world crises, political events, and various breaking news stories that are designed for maximum shock impact. Having found myself swept up in some of this recently, I’ve seen how easy these scroll holes can be to fall in to. And then when you’ve finally pulled yourself away from doomscrolling, you’re left with a heavy feeling of helplessness, overwhelm and impending doom.

I talk a bit about stealing snippets of time from your current busy routine in order to build a better future, and how I manage to feel accomplished and that I’m working towards something positive, whilst also acknowledging life doesn’t feel great right now. It can feel like psychological warfare at times, and our personal resilience to this is something we all need to build up and reinforce, as I doubt this global situation is going to suddenly go away any time soon.
