It takes creativity and flexibility, but it can be done. Creativity and flexibility are must because entrepreneurs juggle a seemingly endless list of to-dos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sales, improved return on investment (ROI), attracting the right human capital and increasing productivity are areas that small business entrepreneurs focus on day in and day out. When sales are up and ROI is good, these focus areas can send entrepreneurs, including owners of indie bookstores, into a wave of euphoria. It\u2019s easy to feel at peace then. Yet, the world of operating a small business isn\u2019t always smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Stressors for Small Business Owners<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s turnover, eroding team morale, economic headwinds and fierce product competition to deal with. During these times, small business owners\u2019 stress levels can skyrocket. Even the most resilient entrepreneur can feel overwhelmed after living through just three weeks of employee resignations, a drop in sales and a pick-up in customer complaints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why smart entrepreneurs do more than seek paths from nagging stress to inner peace, they find stress reduction shortcuts. Although each person is different, following are some paths that entrepreneurs have taken to reduce stress:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Stay focused on long-term goals. As a bookseller, if I\u2019ve heard this once, I\u2019ve heard it a thousand times. Keep your sights on the long-term goals. Admittedly, the capacity to pull this off relies a lot on the next stress reduction step.<\/li><li>Believe that they can succeed. It\u2019s not enough to keep your sights on long-term goals. You actually need to believe that you can be successful doing what you love. You really have to believe it.<\/li><li>Strong financial habits. This applies at the individual and business levels. To operate with inner peace, entrepreneurs know what to invest in and what to turn away from. Additionally, they pay employees, consultants and freelancers based on what their business can sustain long-term.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keys to How Entrepreneurs Are Finding Inner Peace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Staying in balance and at peace is no small trick. Hence, the reason entrepreneurs committed to living in peace have a dozen or more tools in their kit, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Determination is a must. To keep stress down and to deal with stress in healthy ways, they are determined. Simply put, determination fuels entrepreneurs through a major mistake. As an example, if your sales team closed 35% more deals over the last two years than at any other time in your company\u2019s history and you started celebrating too soon or celebrated for too long only to see large clients exit, it\u2019s your determination to succeed that could surface new ideas. This very example has happened. And it\u2019s understandable. After all, sales are why you\u2019re a for-profit organization. You should celebrate. To keep your bottom line strong, you should also <em>keep your eye on your existing customers<\/em> and not just celebrate each new customer who walks through the door. Focusing too much on either and not enough on the other could cost you large chunks of business.<\/li><li>Persistence is a must-have in a successful entrepreneur\u2019s toolkit. While they persist, busy entrepreneurs are sure to be flexible. The last thing they will do is persist with a tactic that\u2019s never going to work. Yet, they don\u2019t give up. Instead, they are willing to look at the situation differently. They\u2019re also willing to ask others for insight. Getting input from the right people opens them up to new opportunities, new ideas and more success.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Organic Paths to Inner Peace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As beneficial as these stress reducers are, there are more ways that busy entrepreneurs are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chistell.com\/africanamericanfiction\/quick-stress-reducers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">finding inner peace<\/a>. These next steps are good for business; they also have a positive impact on business owners\u2019 overall health. Try adding one to three of these steps into your day, even if you own an indie bookstore and face days crammed with meetings with bookstore buyers, authors, publishing companies, distributors, publicists and marketing reps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Get outside, move and breathe. Entrepreneurs serious about finding inner peace, get outside regularly. Regardless of where their business is located, they find creative ways to get outside year-round. While outside, they might enjoy a 30-minute walk. Or they might dine outdoors with a friend, ride a bike or exercise at a nearby gym that has an outdoor workout area.<\/li><li>Feed their body nourishing food and beverages. This means they might have to go with fresh water with a slice of lemon for lunch and dinner meetings. Eating green, leafy vegetables and fresh fruits that agree with their body is a priority.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>More Ways Busy Entrepreneurs Are Finding Inner Peace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Meditate. Yes. Entrepreneurs are finding inner peace through appreciation. They appreciate simply sitting down and being still. They might start off by sitting still for two minutes in the morning and another two minutes at night. If that seems too long, they might start with one minute in the morning and another minute of stillness at night and work their way up to five to ten minutes twice a day. Not only can meditating bring entrepreneurs more inner peace, but meditating can help surface new business growth ideas.<\/li><li>Invest in a good night of sleep. Going to bed at the same time and reducing blue light in their bedrooms are ways entrepreneurs improve sleep. So too is drinking organic cherry juice or eating cherries, as cherries have natural melatonin. Perhaps above all, entrepreneurs are finding inner peace by working through conflicts an hour or more before they head to bed, giving their mind time to unwind. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Trust The Process<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As simple as it sounds, they also seek help. That\u2019s right. Entrepreneurs are finding inner peace by asking business partners to take on certain responsibilities. This one might be tough at the start of their careers, especially if they\u2019re accustomed to handling critical projects themselves. Over time, they learn that as their business continues to grow, they need to start delegating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even more, for these business owners, seeking help aligns with trust. Since no one can succeed in an island-business environment, they learn early that they have to trust others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using an indie bookstore as an example, bookstore owners trust the delivery drivers to get new books to their stores. And they trust utility workers to ensure that the lights are on at their stores. Another event that they trust is the flow of book buyers into their bookstores. When it comes to stress reduction and inner peace, trusting the process (after they\u2019ve done their best) is paramount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Resources:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/271055\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">entrepreneur.com\/article\/271055<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Pathways To Tremendous Success: Weekly Devotional\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"584\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=kpd&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_dO2RVRlimUkbET&#038;asin=0966353986&#038;tag=kpembed-20\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Books Writer Denise Turney Despite challenges, busy entrepreneurs are finding inner peace.
