Dr Melissa Mullins - If you are a new business owner, or are just beginning to start a new business, it is crucial to be aware of emotional well-being and ways to keep your mental health in check. Emotional health is just as imperative as physical health, and so often new entrepreneurs skip out on healthy eating for convenience foods, skimp on the sleep, and feel that they are too busy to exercise or take time for themselves. You, embarking on a fabulous journey for a fabulous future, need a healthy mind to keep moving forward in terms of everything that goes into your business (while also managing home and family). Here are some ideas for you to keep your emotional health in a positive state!
Keep Work Separate
One action you can take to avoid emotional anguish is to keep your work separate from your home responsibilities and family time. Designate days or certain times during the week for just focusing on your business. When this is done consistently, you will be less stressed about all of the things you need to get done. Knowing that you can only worry about or focus on your business during the time allotted, you will stay emotionally grounded. An emotionally grounded "you" will be more pleasant to be around and will enjoy time to the fullest with family.
