It’s 100% ok to pause!
For anyone that needs to be reminded here is your reminder!
When starting a business you usually set out with an idea and hit the ground running. You are full of passion and so many ideas. Then things start to get moving and you are busy and you can lose sight of the overall goal of why you started your business. This is the time you should take a step back and look at your business.
Signs you may need a little break
You are feeling burnt out
You’re a little overwhelmed
Losing sight of why you started
Confused about what to do or where to take your business next
Pausing doesn't mean your stopping or hindering something from growing, it can allow you to look at things with fresh eyes and remember why you started and in the long run, make your business that much better.
