If there is one thing I am certain about when it comes to business owners is that, most of them usually get lost/ consumed with the happenings around them that it becomes difficult for them to even smile.
Sometimes, the attitude displayed by some business owners makes it becomes scary for others to go into business. Most local business owners have a constant attitude of nagging about how poor their sales have been and how they are unhappy, but one thing that keeps amazing me is the fact that, no matter how much they complain, they never stop the business, so they complain daily and stick around the business continuously, this makes me ask myself, if this isn’t favorable for them, why don’t they change their line of business or if business is not their thing, why don’t they get employed? (I still do not have an answer to this question, so I would not mind hearing from you).
I am not going to deny the fact that I know and I am very much aware that business is a task on its own, business could be extremely stressful and it might require much more attention than you planned initially but the fact that you have to lighten up remains dominant.
I am going to tell you one scary but true fact today and that is: as an entrepreneur, disasters are certainly going to come they are unavoidable but when you can smile and laugh (even if it is just for a little period), then things will not look as terrible as they seem.
When you laugh through your troubles, there are certain advantages that could be added to the table and they are:
Laughing through the period of pains, will raise your hope, remember that every living individual requires hope to survive and we also need it to go through everyday successfully. You need hope to make the best out of your business, so smile and give yourself and your business the hope that is required for daily push.
While you worry and wear a frown, you keep getting stressed up and it looks like you are the only one who has the problems in the world. If you could try to get your mind off the troubles that weigh you down, then be rest assured that you will get relieved.
Panic, worry and fear from a boss has the ability to break down workers completely, but when a business owner happens to be positive about whatever situation that happens, the business owner just seem to be perfect and always on top of his game, this will also gear up the workers and make them realize that there is no room for being moody or staying weak.
While communicating with customers, employees or anyone associated with your business, the manner at which you communicate with them matters a lot and it is essential for you to realize that you have to put yourself together while communicating with them, else you risk ruining your business as well as its reputation.
Remember that change is the only constant thing and it is mandatory that it happens, it could either be a good change or a bad change, whenever a change that is unpleasant raises its ugly head, learn to smile through and walk through glamorously.
Know that you are no way above mistake, so do not beat yourself too much whenever there is a change, you need to even laugh at the stupid decisions you have made sometimes, learn the necessary lessons and move on.
My point exactly is that, you do not have to beat yourself too hard, just smile through your pains and worry and achieve the best you can, life does not have to be so hard I suppose.
