Let's talk about if you're feeling anxious as a business owner or as an entrepreneur, this may be a new feeling for you feeling anxious. You see, as the top dog, as the business owner, as the entrepreneur, we're in control of so many things, we have so much freedom. So when something happens, we can deal with it. And that's exactly what's happened over the last nine or so months. COVID-19 is both huge changes, but as business owners, we can pivot. We can act quickly. We can deal with it and we can move on four. We can often prosper because of that.

There are many businesses that I'm dealing with who are doing extremely well, and it may not be public media say that, and let's face it. I don't deal with restaurants. Hospitality automotive is more retail, which is really badly affected, but pretty much every other business that I work with is doing well through COVID, but still, the business owners feel anxious.

So what's going on here?

Let me give you a quick example. Yesterday, seven o'clock in the morning, there was a brush fire forest fire that happened in Irvine of when you happened very close to where me and my family live. That was seven o'clock in the morning by nine o'clock. We decided we needed to move because the smoke was so bad by 10 o'clock. We had flights and by happy hour, we're here on this beach in Cabo, and that's where I'm going to spend the rest of this week working. That's exactly how a business owner reacts. Something happens. We deal with it.

So, Why do we have the feel of anxiousness?

Well, the trouble is there's a lot. That's about to happen, that we don't have to control that as a business owner. How would the elections affect us? How with all those props that could affect our business, how's that going to lay? Um, what's going to happen with COVID-19.

As we move through the rest of this year, what's gonna happen with employees. What's gonna happen with rent. All these things are beyond our control. So that's where the anxiousness comes in. Anxiousness is really fear or stress about something that may happen in the future. The only thing that we can do as business owners is plan for the things around us, and that's what planning for 2021 is all about. So if you haven't done that yet, please do that. It'll help you. It'll relieve some anxiousness and it will help you get prepared for next year. I'll help you prosper in the future.

How are you getting over your anxiousness and how are you planning for 2021? I would love to know, please share here.
