Entrepreneurs are known as being some of the hardest working people in the world. I mean, you have to be when your livelihood and life are intertwined. Although you may think it’s impossible to “take time off,” it will actually help you be a better entrepreneur and online fitness coach.

Here are just a few reasons why you need to let yourself relax and take some much-needed time off:

Personal renewal. Vacations help you feel refreshed and energized. Chances are, you’re running around all day, every day trying to get sales calls booked, nurture leads, meet and follow up with current clients, and more! This gives you a chance to unplug and focus on your own health and wellness. 

Inspires creativity. Vacations help you see new places, meet new people, and enjoy new experiences. From this, it can help inspire new and fresh ideas to your content, a new program offering, or simply help you realize that you can outsource some of your administrative and other stuff to be able to focus on helping your clients. A positive mindset is something that affects not only you & your family, but your clients will be able to benefit from your positive energy as well. 

Beware: meeting new people means that you may be tempted to start selling your program to them. While there’s nothing wrong with it per se, don’t give in to temptation. Give them your contact info or business card with a little info and move on. Showing others that you see the importance of taking care of yourself is the best sales pitch you can give at the time and contact them after your vacation. 

Helps you refocus. Vacations or even staycations can give you a chance to clarify your thinking and focus your mind in a way that helps resolve uncertainty and indecision. For instance, you may come back after a vacation and realize that there are some things you’re willing to hand off. 

For instance, you could outsource your outreach system and you could have come back home to booked sales calls from our Outreach Specialists. While you were gone, you could have had your social media postings running to keep you visual to potential clients and engaged with your clients. 

In your strategic goals for your business, you need to include regular time off. Whether you take a vacation or just stay home to spend time with the family, or do a project that you enjoy but never have the time for…. the time away with help you to renew, reenergize, refocus, and return to your clients with a positive attitude, new motivation, and a heightened sense of clarity and purpose.
