New Year Planning! Annual Plan for Online Entrepreneurs

New Year Planning! Annual Plan for Online Entrepreneurs

Michele Duwe from Miss Task | New Year Planning! Annual Plan for Online Entrepreneurs

Can you believe another year has flown by? I don’t know about you, but this year has been a journey of ups and downs. I frequently have to remind myself that the LORD's plan is always greater when things do not go exactly how I planned. With that said, an annual plan provides a compass so you don't lose sight of what's important when you hit the bumps in the road.

Successful online business owners understand that business ebbs and flows. What you need to hold tight to is your why. That is what will keep you going during the struggles and thankful in times of prosperity. Understanding what drives you towards your goals or why you are so passionate about taking yourself on this unknown journey of entrepreneurship. Your why, along with your what or the vision you have of where you want to go in the next year, three years, and even five years. Does this mean that every detail is planned? Nope, not at all. It's important to plan your year as a small business owner. But, even more essential is to plan each quarter. That’s when you dive into the details.

Let's start the new year strong by creating a purposeful success plan. I'm sharing everything that's in my annual planning process.

Why Create an Annual Plan?

Are you thinking, NOOOO, Michele, I am not a planner. It feels overwhelming, so I'll stick with flying by the seat of my pants. I get it. In the past, I've flown by the seat of my pants and felt that worked well. However, if you intend to grow your business and become a CEO, you must act like a CEO. What has worked in the past to get you to this point will not be what scales your business to the next level. 

You see, an annual plan provides many benefits:

  • It lets you set goals and work towards achieving them
  • Keeps you focused on what matters most to you 
  • Reduces the chance you'll lose sight of your priorities,
  • Provides direction and alignment for the year ahead
  • Helps you feel in control and on top of your business
  • Allows for less hustle to get everything done

Map Out Your Year

When we map out the year, this is our roadmap of where we want to go in the upcoming new year it allows you to focus on the big picture.

Creating your full-year roadmap lets you schedule important events and commitments around your life by blocking out vacation days.

When you map out the year, you begin to understand your time bank—knowing what you can take on and still allowing yourself three-day weekends and spending time with your kids during the summer.

It provides direction without getting stuck in the details. When you create your annual budget. Plan your launch schedule around your life and not your life around your business. Decide what major initiatives to undertake for the year, not only with your business but with your life, too.

Because whether it is a business project or a personal project, it is important to keep it to one major initiative at a time. When you take on too much, you’ll not have enough time in the day to do all the things in the end, leaving you feeling like you’re failing.

​Begin With Reflection

Take a moment to reflect on what has happened in the past year before planning. Allow yourself to identify successes and areas that need improvement. This will help you focus your energy on the initiatives that will have the most impact. Your wins and failures can teach you a lot. Take some time to reflect on what is most important to you. Write about the life you envision for yourself in the future.

Here are a few journal prompts to get you started:

  • What went really well that you want to repeat?
  • What are you most proud of?
  • What challenges did you face?
  • What changed you?
  • What do you want to do differently next year?
  • Remember, there is no failure, only feedback. What feedback did you receive?

Not much of a journaler? Don't worry; instead, write out an exhaustive list of key points and things you’d like to improve. As with everything, it has to work for you.

Michele Duwe from Miss Task | New Year Planning! Annual Plan for Online Entrepreneurs

How Happy Are You Really?

Inside Notion, I have a daily journal. One of the fields is my daily happiness. By keeping track of this daily, I’m able to go into my monthly and yearly roll-ups and see how happy I really am in my day-to-day life.

Next, let's do a self-assessment to determine how happy you are with your life and online coaching business. Let me break this down for you, how happy are you with each of these categories in your life? One is not happy at all something must change, and ten means you’re over the moon happy.

  1. Money
  2. Personal Growth
  3. Self Care (Mind-Body-Spirit)
  4. Family and Friends
  5. Love and Relationships
  6. You Time (Fun and Leisure)
  7. Home Environment
  8. Online Business

Reflect On Your Assessment

  • What scored high in your self-assessment?
  • Why do you feel these things are working?
  • What is not working in your life and online business?
  • What scored low on your self-assessment?
  • Why do you feel these things are not working?
  • Where do you need to give yourself grace?

Vision Planning for the New Year

If you have a journal, now is the perfect time to get it out to dream about your future life. Really, let your mind wander as you think about what you’re aspiring to achieve in the new year. Step into your future self and what is different in your future life. In one year, where do you hope to be? I believe this is very important; what do you want your feelings to be one year from now?

I’m not stopping there; here is a list of questions for you to journal on in order to gain even more clarity.

  • Where are you now in your present life?
  • Who do you want to become in the new year?
  • Where do you want to be in your life and online coaching business?
  • Where do you hope to be one year from now?
  • What does your ideal life look like?
  • What does your ideal schedule look like?
  • Where are the gaps between who you are now and who you want to become?
  • What's holding you back? Let go of limiting beliefs.
  • Looking back at your self-assessment, where are you not in alignment?
  • What matters most in life to you?
  • What makes me the happiest?
  • What is one word to describe your focus for the year? Is it family, consistency, joy, growth, or health?
  • I haven't fully decided on my word for the upcoming year yet. But, gratitude has come to mind on more than one occasion.

What is holding you back? Be honest with yourself; what beliefs or shoulds are you holding on to that are no longer serving you?

Once you have answered the following questions, go to Canva or Pinterest and create your vision board. On Pinterest, make a secret board and pin those images you want to embody in the new year. As for Canva, design an image for your desktop to keep your vision board and goals front and center!

Create a vision board featuring images that represent your ideal future. Keep it visible as motivation.

Another thing I do in Notion is my vision board. I find an image to represent one thing I envision in my life. Then, I write down why I want this and how it will make me feel.

Once I have my vision and goals inside of Notion, I create a vision board for my desktop. I have two monitors. One that has my vision board for the year. My primary monitor has my vision board for the month. Yes, I create a vision board each month to focus on one thing.

Here is a previous YouTube video that I did on annual planning.

Long-Form Content Planning

What is your content strategy for the year ahead? Does your long-form content lead up to your live launches? Does your pillar content support your revenue stream?

The long-form content in your business is a door away to working with your business; it should be given the proper amount of time. Does your long-form content showcase your skills and the benefits of your services?

Do you have a process for refreshing, reusing, and repurposing your content? If you take the time to create the content, make sure you have a plan to spread the word without leaving you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed.

If part of your yearly plan includes being more consistent with your long-form content, or you want to refresh, reuse, and repurpose what you already have… this is where I can support you. My done-for-you repurposing services give you strategic content that actually sounds like you, without the overwhelm. Check it out here: Content Repurposing Services

Yay! Goal Planning

With your vision in mind, set goals for the year. Do you know what motivates you to accomplish your goals? Do you need outside accountability? If that’s the case, find yourself an accountability bestie. What if you’re not really sure?

In the past, I’ve mentioned Gretchen Rubin's book The Four Tendencies; here is a link to the quiz to find out your tendency: https://gretchenrubin.com/quiz/the-four-tendencies-quiz/. What, I know, right? It boils down to this: what drives you to take action to achieve your goals?

UPHOLDER: “I do what others expect of me—and what I expect from myself.”
QUESTIONER: “I do what I think is best, according to my judgment. If it doesn’t make sense, I won’t do it.”
OBLIGER: “I do what I have to do. I don’t want to let others down, but I may let myself down.”
REBEL: “I do what I want, in my own way. If you try to make me do something—even if I try to make myself do something—I’m less likely to do it.”
Gretchen Rubin, The Four Tendencies

Set Your Goals

  • What do you want to achieve this next year?
  • Launch a new service or product.
  • Hit your ideal income amount.
  • Achieve important business outcomes.
  • Make commitments to what you'll achieve.
  • Address expected challenges
  • Get the resources you'll need (team, tools)

Are your goals in alignment with your vision? Be committed to achieving them. If you’re not committed to achieving your goals, who will be? I’ve mentioned this before: Is it the right goal if you’re unwilling to dedicate time to your goal?

 Plan Your Budget

An essential part of annual planning is creating a budget for the year ahead.

Determine:

  • What are your financial goals for the new year? Not sure what financial goals to set? Here is a list:
    • Revenue goal
    • Spending goal
    • Savings goal
  • How much do you want to pay yourself this year?
    • Make sure your products and services are priced right to hit these goals. Have you done the math on your revenue goals versus the price of your offer?

Do you know if it is even possible to hit your revenue goals with how you have your services priced?

I have a free resource, Know Thy Number. It has a bonus tab to Price for Profit. If you’ve not created a budget or do not have a clue how to price your services for profit, grab that free resource here: https://misstask.com/know-thy-numbers

 Map Out Your Launches and Promotions 

The final piece to include in your annual planning is your launches, promotions, and time off:

  • Block out vacation days and regular days off first
  • Decide your quarterly focus areas
  • Schedule promotions and launches  
  • Allow time for new offer creation

One of the key reasons you map all of this out at a high level? It gives you a 10,000-foot view of your year. It allows you to avoid planning promotions or launches during your scheduled time off. I promise you, your family does not want to go on vacation while you’re in the middle of a launch. That would not be a vacation for anyone.

Give Yourself a Pat on the Back: Encourage Solo Business Owners

Give Yourself a Pat on the Back: Encourage Solo Business Owners

Michele Duwe from Miss Task | Give Yourself a Pat on the Back: Encourage Solo Business Owners

Stop Being So Hard on Yourself

Girl, you need to stop and give yourself a pat on the back.

I wish I could go back and tell my younger self that same thing. How about you?

As women, we can be so incredibly hard on ourselves. We speak to ourselves in ways we would never speak to anybody else, and we justify it by saying, “I'm just being honest.”

But why do we tear ourselves down instead of acknowledging everything we carry, everything we juggle, and everything we've overcome by the grace of God?

The truth is, life requires a lot from us. Business requires a lot. Faith requires surrender. And yet when it comes time to pause and say, “Thank you, Lord, for helping me show up today,” we skip right over it and focus on everything we judge as not enough.

We create mental lists of how we should have done better instead of saying, “Look at what God and I just did together.”

Why Solo Business Owners Struggle with Self-Praise

Now, this is important. Looking for others to validate us only keeps us stuck. No one else can hand you the confidence that comes from partnering with God. That's an inside job, friend.

Listen, I'm a work in progress here too. I used to think giving myself credit was so prideful, but acknowledging the work God has done through me just isn't pride. It's gratitude.

Flipping the script and actually giving yourself a pat on the back is actually an act of stewardship. You're recognizing the gifts He's placed in you and the courage it took to actually use them.

It's Not Always Easy to Celebrate Your Wins

Let's be real. Depending on how you were raised, self-praise might have been frowned upon. But why?

Why is it considered acceptable to receive praise from others for our accomplishments, but somehow wrong to give ourselves thanks and acknowledgement for what we actually did and accomplished?

I'm just gonna say it—it's a bunch of crap.

You can be humble. You can surrender. And you can give yourself a pat on the back when you actually deserve it, because it's not about saying, “Look at me.” It's about saying, “Thank you, God, for helping me do this.”

Be proud of yourself. Give yourself that pat on the back. Be the empowered business owner God created you to be.

When Fear Keeps You Stuck (A Real Client Story)

Here's an example. I was working with a client who had written so many beautiful blog posts about her clean living homestead—good content that could genuinely help people.

But she hadn't hit publish on a single one of those blog posts.

When we talked about it, the truth came out. Her own thoughts were keeping her a well-kept secret. Fear was calling all the shots in her business, and it was keeping her stuck.

So here's what I did. I challenged her to do one small thing before our next meeting—publish just one post. Give someone the possibility to benefit from what she had written.

And when she took that action? She needed to give herself a pat on the back to celebrate that she had the courage to do the hard thing.

We get to pick our hard in life, friend. Which one do you want it to be? And when you pick the hard thing, celebrate it.

Michele Duwe from Miss Task | Give Yourself a Pat on the Back: Encourage Solo Business Owners

The Stories We Tell Ourselves as Solo Business Owners

We tend to make up all these stories in our mind about what's going to happen, about how people will respond, about whether we're good enough.

The only thing these stories do is keep us stuck.

We will never really know until we take action. And once we do the hard thing—whether it's publishing that post, launching the offer, or just showing up on video for the first time—we need to give ourselves that well-deserved pat on the back for doing the hard things.

Michele Duwe from Miss Task | Give Yourself a Pat on the Back: Encourage Solo Business Owners

Quick Recap: Why You Deserve a Pat on the Back

Let's bring it back to the big picture:

As women and Christian business owners, we're often incredibly hard on ourselves—saying things we would never, ever dream of saying to anybody else. We judge our efforts instead of celebrating what we've actually done.

The stories we tell ourselves keep us stuck, but taking action will actually free us.

And here's the thing—God's not asking you to be perfect, friend. He's just asking you to be faithful.

A Reminder for Your Heart

I want to leave you with this thought: Love yourself.

This doesn't mean pride or arrogance. It means recognizing that you are fearfully and wonderfully made, that the calling on your life matters, that showing up—even imperfectly—is worth celebrating.

So the next time you accomplish something, big or small, give yourself a pat on the back. You are doing important work, friend.

I pray this reaches the person who needs to hear it today.

5 Tips for Dealing With Creative Burnout and Staying Motivated

5 Tips for Dealing With Creative Burnout and Staying Motivated

Michele Duwe from Miss Task | 5 Tips for Dealing With Creative Burnout and Staying Motivated

Dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated is something every online entrepreneur faces at some point. I’ve been there myself—when your creativity feels drained and your motivation disappears, consistency with content becomes almost impossible. But here’s the good news: you can rebuild your spark and prevent creative burnout with a few intentional habits.

I was starting to show signs of creative burnout, and I thought it was time to revisit this post to give myself a boost of motivation. Here are five tips for dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated during periods of low energy and lackluster creativity.

Recognize the Signs of Creative Burnout

You likely have a good idea of what creative burnout feels like for you. Here are a few common signs to watch out for:

  • Overwhelming exhaustion
  • Lack of motivation
  • Difficulty focusing
  • Procrastination and missed deadlines
  • Irritability and reduced creativity
  • Low energy

If these symptoms sound familiar, it’s time to pause and re-evaluate your workload and stress management. When dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated, this simple pause can make all the difference. Look at it through the lens of the four D's: Do, Defer, Delegate, Delete. While tracking your time may sound daunting to some, it is necessary to gain a sense of where you're spending your time.

Consider if there are any tasks that you could delegate or outsource. Once I let go of the fear of having to support another person with my business, outsourcing to a Content VA increased my revenue. For more information on what to prepare before hiring a content assistant, refer to my earlier post: What to Prepare Before Hiring a Content Assistant 

5 Tips for Dealing With Creative Burnout and Staying Motivated

1: Taking Breaks and Recharging:

It's funny how when our to-do list is endless, taking a break doesn't sound like the smart thing a small business owner should do. But here's the thing: regular breaks throughout the day are essential for maintaining your energy levels and preventing burnout.

Taking breaks isn’t laziness—it’s one of the best ways of dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated when your energy is running low. When you’re feeling drained, remember: even Jesus rested. Rest is not a reward—it’s how we refuel for the work we’re called to do.

You may not love the Pomodoro Method; however, it is helpful to remind yourself to take a break. One thing that I've discovered for myself is that the 25-minute sprint is short for me. The 25-minute mark is when I'm just hitting my groove.

If you've tried this method in the past and it hasn't worked for you, play with different timings.

Take a break each day to reenergize and reconnect with what matters most. You'll feel rejuvenated when you take a break from work to refresh and renew yourself with activities such as a quick walk, loading the dishwasher, or listening to music during a ten-minute clean. Try a guided meditation if you're feeling lazy and need a complete recharge. When I'm feeling like the life has been sucked out of me, I'll grab my earbuds and hit the sofa with a Yoga Nidra practice.

Make sure you are getting enough restful sleep as well; this will help ensure that you have the energy necessary to tackle any project enthusiastically.

2: Setting Boundaries and Prioritizing Tasks:

The most common mistake people make is not realizing how long tasks actually take to complete, causing those lingering tasks to feel daunting as a result. Begin to set boundaries around how much work you take on is essential when it comes to avoiding burnout. Setting boundaries is one of the most powerful tools for dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated. When you know what to say “no” to, your “yes” carries more purpose.

Boundaries create space for obedience and peace—two essentials for consistent creativity.

If you struggle with saying no, be sure to read my post on Overcoming the “Yes to Everything” Mindset.

If you would like to listen to this episode on Overcoming the “Yes to Everything” Mindset, it is episode 66: Here is the link to Apple Podcasts, or search for episode 66 on your favorite podcast player.

Focus on one task at a time. New studies have shown that we really aren't great at multitasking. If you focus on one task, it will take you less time to complete. Are you struggling to prioritize what to work on next?

Michele Duwe from Miss Task | 5 Tips for Dealing With Creative Burnout and Staying Motivated

Put the tasks in order, starting with the deadline. I'm not sure about you, but I need to know what I will be working on before the week begins. Otherwise, I'll get a hare-brained idea, and before I know it, I'm six hours in and wondering what the heck I did with my day and why nothing is checked off my to-do list.

Plan ahead and stop chasing shiny objects. Prioritize tasks according to importance, so that the most pressing matters are tackled first.

Once you have prioritized tasks according to importance based on deadlines, you'll understand the urgent matters before moving on to less pressing ones.

Choose icons or emojis and add them to the front of the tasks that are priorities. While I know that in project management software, you can add a priority. However, if you're easily distracted, having those call out right in the task works the best. The same thing can be done in your paper planner as well. Be sure to create a small “key” until you have formed the habit. You'll love this system.

By implementing simple strategies for dealing with creative burnout, you can help yourself stay motivated and productive.

3: Staying Motivated During Difficult Times (and Dealing with Creative Burnout Through Faith)

When you’re dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated feels impossible, remember that your calling doesn’t depend on constant output—it depends on obedience. Remaining consistent with content creation when you're not seeing the fruits of your labor can be tough. It's important to remember that you are not alone in this crazy online world of entrepreneurship.

Always remember to pray about it. There have been countless times in my life and business journey when I dropped to my knees out of frustration and worry. When you're not sure where to turn, turn to our Heavenly Father. When you're unsure about the next right step, pray about it. All I can say is pray about it, pray about it, pray about it. If that upsets you, I'm not the person for you.

Let's also not forget about celebrating small wins and progress along the way. This is one of the best ways to stay on track and remain focused. Friends, episode 50 is about celebrating your small wins. Check it out here on Apple Podcasts or search for it on your favorite podcast player.

Or you can visit the blog and read it here: https://misstask.com/woohoo-celebrate-your-small-wins/ 

Please, for the love, acknowledge your accomplishments, no matter how small they may seem. When you look for the small everyday win, it will help keep you motivated even when things get tough. Celebrating small wins is one of the best ways to keep dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated when progress feels slow.

Also, drawing motivation from your business besties is a great way to stay on track. Find motivation by seeking out those who have achieved what you aspire to, and use their words as encouragement, as proof that anything is possible with dedication.

Understand what motivates you and reward yourself periodically along the way! You may want to treat yourself to a nice meal or some chill-out time – it'll help keep you going when you feel like giving up.

Staying motivated during difficult times is a key factor in maintaining creative productivity. By managing stress levels and developing healthy habits, you can avoid burnout and remain productive even when the going gets tough.

4: Managing Stress Levels to Avoid Burnout

Managing your stress is essential for dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated long-term. 

One of the biggest lessons I've learned as a content creator is that your peace leads to your productivity. Dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated is a real  issue affecting many entrepreneurs, particularly small business owners and coaches in the online business space. 

It's funny how we can encourage others to recognize and manage stress levels effectively, but it is something we quickly overlook for ourselves. The best way to avoid burnout is to establish healthy routines, say no to additional tasks, and take regular breaks.

Having beneficial routines is an effective way of dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated. Establishing a balanced lifestyle that includes regular meal times away from your desk, sufficient sleep each night, and consistent exercise while avoiding overdoing it can help prevent burnout. 

Additionally, setting up a daily routine or time blocks with specific tasks at certain times can help keep your workflow organized and prevent overwhelm from taking over your life, ultimately helping you in dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated.

5: Learning To Say No & Set Limits

When dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated, learning to say no becomes an act of stewardship—protecting the energy and creativity God gave you. 

As an entrepreneur, it's easy to get caught up in trying to please everyone around you by saying yes too often; however, this could lead to overextending yourself, which could result in burnout down the line. While we touched on setting boundaries earlier, it's important enough to revisit the topic when dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated.

Learning when it's appropriate (and necessary) to say “no” is key here. Setting boundaries on how much work you take on each week is also important – make sure not only that your workload isn't too heavy, but also that there's still room left for being present with your family and enjoying some downtime.

Always prioritize taking care of yourself above all else. Make sure to carve out time during the day just for yourself, where you don't have any obligations or expectations. Whether it's going for a walk outside or reading a book, whatever helps bring peace into your life should be done without hesitation. This will help ensure that both your mental health and productivity remain high even when faced with challenging tasks ahead, ultimately helping you in dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated.

Managing stress levels is essential for avoiding burnout and should be taken seriously. By understanding your triggers, developing effective coping mechanisms, and establishing support networks, you can prevent future burnouts and stay on track when dealing with creative burnout and maintaining motivation.

Building Resilience to Prevent Future Burnouts

The effects of burnout can be crippling to your business. You see, taking a year off from creating organic content in my business was a huge setback for me. But I understand now that things happen for you, not to you. This happened for me so that I could truly embrace creating content and fall in love with it.

With that said, if you even think you're on the road to burnout, take a step back and figure out the root cause. This is crucial when dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated. Taking time to reflect on what led to burnout in the first place is key to dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated in the future.

To avoid future burnouts, it is essential to build self-resilience. Understanding your boundaries is necessary for preventing burnout.

It is essential to identify what causes you stress and learn how to manage it effectively to prevent burnout in the future. For example, if deadlines cause you undue stress, consider breaking up tasks into smaller chunks or creating a timeline that allows for more flexibility when completing projects.

The ability to cope with stressful situations is also crucial to building resilience against burnout in the future. This could include taking breaks throughout the day or engaging in calming activities such as meditation or prayer. 

It is vital to maintain a healthy lifestyle that includes nutritious eating, adequate rest, and regular physical activity to feel energized and ready to tackle challenging tasks without feeling overwhelmed. These strategies can be highly effective when dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated.

Managing stress and overcoming challenges may be easier with the support of a business bestie who gets the online business world. Having someone there who understands your struggles and is willing to listen can make all the difference when dealing with challenging situations. By building strong relationships with people who share similar lifestyles, you can express yourself without fear of judgment and receive emotional support during difficult times, which can help you avoid burnout in the future and stay on track when dealing with creative burnout and staying motivated.

Remember, God doesn’t rush growth. He refines it. Give yourself grace as you rebuild your energy and creativity.
