Investing in yourself means readying yourself to take on any new venture, tackle any obstacle and identify opportunities where there seems to be none.
Here’s a few ways you can start investing in yourself as an entrepreneur!
Start small: Starting small means your personal investments can be simple, such as a Saturday afternoon alone to read a new book or try out a new recipe. Make it a habit to stretch every morning, or start a basic exercise routine. This can improve memory and focus as well as your ability to carry out basic tasks. In my schedule, I make a commitment to a daily walk. Making a schedule with your investment in mind, adding it to your to-do list or even having it on the calendar will encourage you to make it happen.
2. Start private: Starting with small, personal investments means you can make your first attempts to invest in yourself in private and without judgment. Give yourself 30 minutes to play an instrument, knit or engage in another hobby you can do alone. When work takes us away from what we enjoy, we can grow resentful and unhappy about our jobs and the moments we miss when not at home. Allowing yourself the time to practice whatever brings you joy, on the other hand, will invigorate your life.
3. Think Outside of the Box:
Making small, private investments in yourself constructs the sturdy foundation of confidence that you need to then reach out and involve others, be it a coach or a group, formal or informal, or just your best friend at work. Create a space in which you feel safe enough to put yourself out there and be vulnerable to criticism. Beyond just personal investments to treat ourselves well and make life more practical, when we invite others into our self-investments, we can better identify opportunities to improve our performance.
