Running your own home based internet business is at times very mind boggling. Sometimes you get bogged down so deep that no matter how much you struggle to find a way out, you just head in a different direction in the same old rut. The truth is that your mind is also in a rut and you must take steps to revitalize yourself before you can function at your highest capacity. A clear and alert mind is an important tool for your Internet marketing business, but too often you can become too obsessed with tweaking everything – building email-opt-in-lists, writing emails, sales copy, caught up in forums all in the name of building a successful internet business.
You think you’re being efficient and on top of things, but you’re really like a gerbil spinning in a wheel. You must nourish your mind as well as your body and spirit to get the most from your everyday life – not only your work, but also your personal life. To provide nourishment for your mind, you need to have a plan of action. Think about the following ways you can relax and revitalize your mind and which would mean the most to you: Reading a good book – just for entertainment, not a business related book.
Spending time with your family – spouse, kids and/or pets – playing a game or having a picnic or fun in the park.
- Having a leisurely lunch with a good friend.
- Taking a nap or going to a matinee movie in the middle of the day.
You get the idea. You will be able to think of other ways to help revitalize your mind. And some of these ideas are good for your body as well as your mental state. They all work together to make you a happy, productive, and balanced person.
A helpful reminder to stop and take the time to renew and revitalize your mind is to place a photo or other item that prompts you to remember something you like to do. It might be a photo of you and a good friend – or an activity that you enjoy, such as hiking or bicycle riding.
If you are an indoor person, play soft music and relax in your couch.
