You’ll have heard it before I'm sure. But as I make my way as a small business owner I realise just how true the saying "don't sweat the small things" is. One tip I can give you, whether you run or work for a business, is to take time each day to set your tasks and prioritise them. I do it at the end of each day for the next day. That way any leftover tasks from that day or any fresh ones as a result of an action that day, is added while still fresh in my mind.

A simple “Things to do” list with the most important tasks at the top will help you march through your day with clear direction. It’s amazing how satisfying a tick alongside a task can be. It saves me heaps of time. I’m no longer scratching my head trying to think what I need to do next, it’s all set out for me.

Give it a go. You wont look back.
