I’ve worked with clients who have kept their businesses growing through some pretty dire circumstances.

I’ve seen folks grow through major recessions. One of my clients famously told me that she was “not participating in the recession.” And she didn’t!

I’ve worked with clients who have lost key staff members, even seen whole departments quit, but that didn’t slow their growth.

We’ve all lived through shutting down our offices and building whole new all-remote workflows, and many of you are ending 2020 better than you began it.

The one thing that can stop your business growth is when the owner has a major health crisis.

When you don’t have your health, nothing else matters.

Ask anyone you know who has faced a health crisis – it causes you to re-evaluate your priorities! But you don’t have to wait for the crisis to hit; you could re-evaluate right now!

How can you invest in your health this year?

• Get out for a walk every day.
• Do a 20 min HIIT workout 3X a week.
• Move your diet toward more vegetables.

How can you invest in your mental health this year?

• Make a standing appointment to talk to a friend weekly.
• Invest time in a hobby – something that has nothing to do with business.
• Start a gratefulness journal.

This isn’t an email designed to make you feel guilty or add one more thing to your to-do list. It’s just a reminder that not everything that needs to have your attention and priority is on your to-do list.
