It’s tempting to think you should be able to figure everything out by yourself. After all, it’s your business, right? But here’s the truth:
- Business isn’t meant to be a solo mission. Every successful business owner has people behind the scenes helping them.
- Support lifts the weight. A coach, mentor, or even just the right team member can share the load so you can focus on the work you love.
- Perspective creates breakthroughs. When you’re stuck in the weeds, it’s almost impossible to see the bigger picture. Someone on the outside can often spot the solution instantly.
3 Action Steps to Stop Struggling Alone
If you’re feeling the heaviness of running your business right now, here are three simple steps you can take:
1. Get Clear on Your Numbers
Don’t hide from them. Work out your break-even point (what you need to earn to cover your costs). Once you know this, you’ll feel more in control and less like you’re flying blind.
👉 Action: Write down your fixed monthly costs, then divide them by the average value of a client. That tells you how many clients you need each month to break even.
2. Find Your Go-To Person
Who’s the one person you can turn to when business feels overwhelming? This might be a coach, a peer, or a trusted friend who understands your industry. Don’t bottle it up — reach out when you’re stuck.
👉 Action: Write down the name of one person you can message this week if you’re feeling lost. If you don’t have one, it’s time to find that support.
3. Create a 90-Day Plan
Stop trying to think 12 months ahead when 90 days is more than enough. Breaking your goals into smaller chunks gives you quick wins and keeps you motivated.
👉 Action: Write down one income goal, one marketing focus, and one personal boundary for the next 90 days. Keep it simple and achievable.
Final Thought
You don’t have to carry this alone. With the right support, you’ll breathe easier, feel lighter, and start to see real results.
