Home Business: Staying Motivated
One important requirement for starting anything is you need a certain level of self-confidence in order to survive.If you don’t naturally have that gift then you need to acquire this somehow. First and foremost you need to like yourself. If there have been people in your life that didn’t seem to get your objective or scenario, or any situation in your life that made you feel low, just forgive and forget and move on.
Therefore forgive yourself, and forgive the other person no matter who you feel was at fault. We have our trials and tribulations, and cannot let them impede our progress. Just acknowledge them and the pain they caused and just accept it. Now is the time to move on and grow, forgiveness is the key to being able to move forward. 
It helps, if we remember to feel , and change our mind-set, if we have something to counter the negativity. This can be as simple as forcing yourself to smile. Hold that pose for a moment. You may also say to yourself that you are a good person and really, really, mean it. Take several deep cleansing breaths, to clear your head and move on. A little exercise, even for a short time, will really help to calm you down and give you a new perspective, and refocus on the task at hand.
Self-confidence is something we acquire from the things that we achieve. We especially need this when starting a new business, because it will take a while to see any substantial results from the work in hand. Having belief in yourself is very important and knowing that you can achieve your goals, is paramount for success.
Take some time to create a mental inventory of your achievements. It may be encouraging if you draft a list of skills, and experiences, that you have acquired in your life. Refer to this list whenever you are feeling low or discouraged.Simple things can work – like a feeling of satisfaction after having organized your office, or did a great job cleaning your apartment, bathroom,and kitchen . Actually being brave and confident enough to start a business is something to be proud of, win or lose! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain, and the new experience will build your confidence, and business acumen.
The most important thing you can do to succeed with your new business is to stay focused and motivated. The best way this can be accomplished is if you keep trying and remember to feel a sense of achievement. This is not tied to your end results at the beginning, though it is related to your effort and determination, to get started and persist dilligently in your new business adventure!
Stay safe and well.
