Getting out of bad behaviours in business

Last week, I was feeling not dissimilar to the picture above. I was a struggling to get things done both in a business capacity, and personally. 

Admittedly, it was my own fault: the effect of a combination of behaviours and just general silliness. But, perhaps I should be more honest with you guys. It was because I was too busy looking at other businesses rather than mine. It's so very easy to see others' successes as your own failures, rather than letting them inspire.

The good news is I pushed myself to the gym, I pushed myself to get things done AND I pushed myself to have an amazing 85% cocoa hot chocolate from Monsieur Truffe on the way to work last week. A bit of self-nurturing works wonders for positivity and outlook when you're in a rut.

After a a lot of reflection and a chat to good and a chat to good friends who are also in business, I'm not only back on track with the business, but have vowed not to do it again. 

The lesson here is that it's best to focus on your own business, not others.
