Be Easy on Yourself
Starting a business is a large undertaking. There are so many moving parts — so many things to take into consideration.
In the midst of all this, you're almost certainly going to make a mistake here and there.
But that's OK. it's not the mistake itself that will usually impact the business in the long-run: it's what you do about that mistake.
It's about whether you take it in stride, or allow it to affect your confidence and belief in your own success. Those who see mistakes as just part of the process are more likely to just allow it to be a blip on the radar — nothing more.
A successful business is generally more about whether you found a way to bring value to the world, rather than whether you made a couple mistakes along the way.
So be easy on yourself. Being a successful entrepreneur does not mean you need to be perfect. It means you need to be resilient, adaptable, and willing to persist even in the face of setbacks and obstacles.
You can prevent many of these mistakes simply by partnering with a bookkeeper who can give you deeper insight into your business's finances, allowing you to see any potential pitfalls with plenty of time to avoid them. When you know that someone is keeping an eye on the financial side of your business and will warn you of any issues they see, you can feel more confident and capable to pursue the success of your business. To get started, just schedule a free consultation and let's discuss how I can help.
In support of your vision,

There are a prevalence of bookkeeping courses out there that claim to be able to take you from an absolute beginner, to the owner of your own thriving, successful bookkeeping business with no formal training or prior experience needed. Is bookkeeping really that accessible that anyone can learn it in a matter of weeks? Or should bookkeepers be held to a higher standard? That's the topic of...
Well, it's been a while since my last blog post. I've been busy with end-of-year preparation for clients, not to mention going back to school to pursue a degree in accounting. I recently wrote a research paper for one of my classes that I thought would be perfect for this blog. The paper examines whether the four-day work week has as many advantages as commonly reported. My research surprised me, to say the least, so I hope you find this post informative. Click Here to Read the Post In...
