Do you feel like your business is going in the direction you envisioned it would? If not, why? What are you doing differently? Take a step back and figure out what is off. It may sound crazy, but creating a vision for your dream week can lead to clarity in your online business.
Goal Setting for Clarity
Reaching your goals can be a struggle without clarity. Clarity in your online business provides motivation and excitement for the road ahead. You see, I’ve gone down many roads that I thought I “should” go down, going after goals that I thought would bring me joy and success. In the end, they were the dreams and visions of someone else, not my own.
And now, your thinking how do you figure it out?
Journal On How You Feel At The End Of Each Day
So much can be said about journaling. I think that’s why so many business owners talk about it. It’s not any different for me. When I started my business, I journaled every morning. It’s really what led me to start my business.
As my business and workload grew, journaling took a backseat to client work and the day-to-day running of my business.
I've tried everything when it comes to becoming a consistent journaler. Do you want to know what is the best way to journal?
Well, that’s for you to decide. I had to figure it out myself, and you must do the same. It boils down to this: There is no right or wrong.
You must, I repeat, you must journal how you want! If you attempt to journal how other journals, it’s like sticking a square peg in a round hole, just saying it won’t work. If you start out strong and drop off, do it differently. If your journaling includes doodle, let it be. The need for multiple pen colors, let it be, you’ll only journal electronically, you do you.
The best way to journal is the way YOU will journal.
What is your dream week as a business owner?
I know what you’re thinking: how can creating a dream week lead to clarity in your online business? It’s funny how many entrepreneurs struggle to find their niche. Me included.
We can get all up in our heads about the right or wrong way to do something when there is no right or wrong. It is about picking a nice, big path and just starting. The more you do you’ll begin to watch your path narrow as you go.
It is about having confidence in yourself, about believing that no matter the path you choose, it will be the right path for you.
The most common reason I hear mom entrepreneurs start a business is the same reason I did: to have freedom and flexibility for their families.
If you spend your time trying to keep a ridge schedule, will that feel like freedom and flexibility to you?
You see, this is why creating your dream week can lead to clarity in your online business. You have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince. 🙂
Stay with me now. If you started your business for freedom and flexibility, what you offer to make money in your business must align with that value. If it does not, you’ll not make it. You’ll constantly be searching for something else. That something that will make you feel in alignment with your vision and why.
In Your Perfect World
– What does your dream week look like
– Are you offering the paid service that brings you joy
– Are you working in the right niche
– Do you need to narrow your focus
– Does this feel true to you
– Remember, there is no right or wrong. You can pivot at any time
How does that work in your current business
After you lay out your dream week, how does this work in your current business? Are you close to your dream week? If not, what needs to shift to become more aligned with your business vision?
In Your Perfect Week
What will your journal say about your perfect week? Maybe it will go something like this?
Imagine waking up each morning feeling energized and excited about the day ahead. You start your day by journaling, allowing your thoughts and ideas to flow freely onto the page. As you sip your morning coffee, you reflect on your goals and the vision you have for your online business.
In your dream week, you're working on projects that light you up. You're offering paid services that align with your passions and bring you immense joy. You've found your niche, and it feels like a perfect fit. Your focus is laser-sharp, and you're making a meaningful impact in the lives of your clients.
You feel a sense of purpose and fulfillment as you go about your day. You're not just going through the motions but living your truth. Every decision you make, and every action you take feels authentic and true to who you are.
Remember, there is no right or wrong way to create your dream week. You have the power to pivot and make changes at any time. Trust your instincts and follow your heart. When you're in alignment with your values and vision, success will naturally follow.
Creating Your Dream Week
To create your dream week, start by asking yourself some key questions:
What activities bring you the most joy and fulfillment?
How much time do you want to dedicate to client work, marketing, and personal development?
What does your ideal work environment look like?
How can you structure your day to maximize productivity while prioritizing self-care?
Once you have a clear picture of your dream week, it's time to take action. Break down your vision into smaller, manageable steps. Set realistic goals and create a plan to achieve them. Surround yourself with supportive individuals who believe in your vision and can offer guidance and encouragement.
Remember, creating your dream week is an ongoing process. As you grow and evolve, so will your vision. Embrace the journey and be open to new opportunities and experiences.
