Do you wonder if you should be doing something for your business? Or maybe if Overtime will help you get to your goals quicker? We discuss how making sure your business is getting enough of your time is important. This should be a temporary schedule of you working elsewhere then your business. We do bring up that when your business becomes your primary source of income, you should be able to reduce your hours and delegate tasks to others. We go over this, because we are going through this with our businesses and work life right now!

How many hours a week do you work with your business and W2 work? Have you been able to transfer to just your business fulltime?

No doubt that you will need to track your business's inflows and outflows to know how well you are doing, you will also need to track what your business owns and owes others as well. This is where Financials come in handy. Your Financials are like a journal for you to track how your business is doing. They will be used by you, your Investors, Banks, and your Tax Accountant, but which ones will be needed and referred to the most? Well that's we discuss on this episode!

How do you create your financials? Do you use any others to track your business's performance?

In this episode we talk about a common business tool used to evaluate your business, and to help perform a personal evaluation, is the SWOT Analysis. This analysis helps you to look at internal and external factors and allows you to reflect upon them. Doing this will allow you to react to situations faster or make more informed business decisions. We discuss how to do this analysis, and how it can be helpful to you and your business.

What other analysis tools do you use? Have you used the SWOT Analysis personally?

Working a 9-5 is the "Normal" way for people to make a living, then some people create a business in their time out of work. Working these two income streams to help them produce the life they desire. Hopefully that business grows enough to make the time it takes up, more worth it. At some point there becomes not enough time in the day and a choice has to be made. This person has to think, "Can I quit my job and do this full time?". That is our discussion today, because we are in that same situation! We discuss the main topics of what has to be considered before someone leaves a job and some talking points to consider.

Are you in a position that you are thinking about leaving your job? Have you set a deadline or a date when you want to quit? Have you quit already and have any additional advice?

Life is amazing at throwing us curveballs! No matter how well you schedule, plan, and organize something comes up that takes priority over everything else!

This episode we talk about that same issue happening to us, what happened, how we were forced to sacrifice and pivot to accommodate for the situation and our advice for when this happens to you!

When it comes to starting a business or even buying one it is best to be as organized and prepared as possible. Creating a Business Plan is doing exactly that! Ben Franklin is quoted as saying, "If you Fail to Plan, You are Planning to Fail". We discuss how creating a Business Plan is done. We go over what should be included in the Beginning, Middle, and End, what you should considered when creating it, who it is for, and how often it should be updated. A lot of the information you put into your Business Plan is for you benefit more then anyone else's and we recommend you take the time to carefully think about what you are adding to your Plan. We discuss our experiences with the many Business Plans we have created and how they have helped us with our business, so that you can see the benefit of creating a Business Plan!

Dolly was partly right when she sang, "Workin' 9 to 5 What a way to make a livin", but for those of of us diving into the Business world we have to add 5-9 on there as well. While it is important to keep the momentum going, it does get harder and harder to be constantly working. We know this for experience and talking with others in our Network. Self Care is much needed! Whether it be playing pick up hockey, turning on the Xbox, saddling up the horse, going out for a Spa day, having dinner with friends, or just watching a movie, recharging your personal battery will help you to come back to your business, and work, with a more clear head and relaxed mind. We don't sit there and tell you how easily we can take time to ourselves, we talk about how there is struggle with giving ourselves time to take a break. We do this because we want you to know that you are not alone on this bumpy road and it is ok to not be perfect!

What is something you do to blow off steam? Do you go out with others or have your own thing you like to do? Please let us know and maybe we might give that a shot or someone else might take up a new hobby!
