Many of us
are bootstrapping our businesses.
We’re trying to make
our funds
stretch as far as we can.
I get that.
But spend a little extra
and get a good office chair.
It doesn’t have to be new.
There are plenty of used office chairs
on the market.
But it should be a good chair,
a chair that supports your body
and ensures
you don’t damage yourself
while working those long hours
starting your business.
We need to remain
healthy.
We have businesses to build.
Get a good office chair.
When I am working
on the final pre-submission draft
of a story,
I can’t think about
much of anything else.
I’m holding the entire story
in my brain,
trying to figure out
all the gaps and issues.
I know this is part of my process
so I prepare for it.
I schedule blog posts,
for example.
I freeze meals
I’ll only need to heat up.
I pre-pay bills.
I see friends and family
right before
starting that final draft.
And I warn people
I’m going into the writing cave
and not resurfacing for a week.
This makes that busy time
MUCH easier.
Prepare for busy times
in your schedule.
And warn people in advance
you’re approaching a busy time.
