It's okay to not know the solution to every problem you're faced with. Ask your fellow business owners for tips when you're stuck. #smallbusinessowner

Small business owners have a lot of responsibilities. If you're having too much trouble in managing yours, download a to-do list app or scheduling app to help you organize your week. #smallbusinessowner

You know you're a hard worker (and there's a lot of great pride to be had in that), but remember to make time for family, self-care, and social activities too. If you maintain a well-rounded life, you'll excel in your entrepreneurship. #smallbusinessowner

Change is inevitable if you want your business to last. If a time comes where you need to pivot your business's vision or let some people go, don't feel defeated. Think of these changes as opportunities for a new beginning. #smallbusinessowner

You didn't take on a feat as big as starting a #business just because you felt like it. You likely had a goal, whether it be providing for your family, acting on your passions, or helping others in your community. On hard days, remember why you started. #smallbusinessowner

You and your team work hard, so why not reward yourselves with bagels and coffee at the office or an after-work dinner? Taking time to celebrate your business's accomplishments will help keep office morale high. #smallbusinessowner #business

Running a business can be taxing and overwhelming. Feeling like you're in over your head is normal. When you start to feel this way, take a step back and breathe. Then, start working toward your goals again, one small step at a time. #smallbusinessowner

Packing your day to the brim won't necessarily bring you success. Take a moment to evaluate whether or not your daily activities effectively serve your long-term goals. If they don't, reorganize how you spend your time! #smallbusinessowner

Transformational relationships are when where both parties are interested in bettering the others' interests and prospects on a long-term basis. Prioritize these ones, as they will typically last longer and be more fruitful than transactional relationships. #smallbusinessowner

The first five minutes of waking up early in the morning are the worst. Once you make it through them, you'll be able to get yourself going toward your peak #productivity hours.

You'll be better equipped to handle your life as a #smallbusinessowner if you have absolute clarity on why you're doing what you're doing, and how you're going to reach your #goals.

Try learning a new way! Even if you think you're not good at learning through written word or visual representation, it doesn't mean you can't get better at it. Trying new learning methods helps you grow as a #leader. #smallbusinessowner
