The Top 3 Ways to Invest In Yourself

Most entrepreneurs are so dedicated to their business they forget to focus

on what they, themselves, need.

In order to grow your business, there are three key ways you should invest in yourself:

1. Make sure you get plenty of rest and exercise2. Join a professional business networking

group3. Continue to increase your knowledge of

business practices and new advancements in your field

1. Get Plenty of Rest and Exercise

We all know that seven to eight hours of sleep each night is critical

to maintaining our health, brain function, mood, and relationships.

What you might not know is that it is during sleep when your brain makes new

pathways and integrates knowledge.

If you're working on new marketing, at night your brain will pull together the

research and information you learned to help you choose wisely where to spend

your money.

Enough sleep is also vital to your alertness levels, which help you make decisions, solve problems,

and adapt quickly to change.

Exercise is another factor that you need to consider.

Regular exercise offers several benefits

• Weight control• Improved mood• Boosts energy• Helps you sleep better• Relaxation• Helps your body fight diseases

Many business owners work

through lunches, after hours, and seven

days a week, particularly when first starting out.

Not taking time to exercise and

get enough sleep

ultimately will hurt you and

your business.

2. Join a Networking Group

Networking with other business owners is important to market and

grow your business.

Some groups are geared strictly towards meeting new people, others:

• Are more informational• Try to teach new skills• Collaborate on projects• Cross-promote each other• Offer business advice

Some networking groups are specific towards your business type (i.e. accounting groups, insurance

groups, etc.).

specifically to bring service business owners together to allow them to

network and learn from each other.

3. Increase your industry knowledge

Increasing your knowledge of what's happening in your industry ensures you know the current trends

and the latest news in your industry.

There are several ways to increase your knowledge:

• Find a mentor• Network in your industry• Read trade publications• Conduct online research• Attend industry conferences

Find time each day to devote to increasing

your industry knowledge.

Becoming an expert in your industry has tremendous benefits:

• Increases your credibility to your clients• Helps you save money • Lets you run your business more efficiently.

One of the best methods to increase your knowledge quickly is to attend a conference.
