In the society now most persons are only after making money forgetting that when your not healthy, you won't enjoy that same money your struggling for....like business people it's very difficult for them to close their shops to go for medical check-up because they feel they are loosing customers those hours they will stay at the hospital..rather they prefer self medication just for them to stay in the shop. What's the essence of making money without being alive to enjoy it
First and foremost, it is important to learn how to outsource for other people to assist you manage your business, especially when it's a large business. That is why partnership businesses flourish more than sole proprietorship businesses. As a sole proprietor, you will have to make yourself available during the business hour to ensure that the business thrives, most especially as the business is based on commodities. Even in Sole Proprietorship business, try to get an assistant, someone trustworthy who can stand in for you at some period of time, while you take a break.
The aphorism that says, 'Health is Wealth', is vehemently important for any business person. Make sure that your health is more priorized than your wealth. Whilst you are working very hard to sustain your business, treat yourself good. Eat good food, sleep well, work on your circadian rhythm and take breaks when necessary.
I want to also use this opportunity to advise businesspeople to diversify, have multiple streams of income. Once one business of yours is thriving, start building another one. So that you can generate more money from different businesses at different times.
