Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

If you find it hard to, or just plain don’t want to switch off at Christmas, summer breaks or holidays, then this guide is just for you.
I know it’s hard to completely shut off from your business, I fail almost every time!
I’m a self-confessed work addict, not a workaholic but I love my work and if I’m honest feel a little lost when I’m forced to have a break. I know I need time out but switching from ‘full on to full off’ is hard. That is why I developed this guide to help with business withdrawal symptoms and for busines owners just like me!
If you feel a little guilty…. Don’t!
It has practical tasks that you can fit into any family or me time day over the holidays. From 5 minutes to a whole day and everywhere in between. There's something you can do in even the smallest time slot.
I know that you miss work if your business is closed, but this is a great thinking and planning time for business owners like you and me.
Be kind to yourself, try to have a break but if you have withdrawal symptoms there is something to do to get you ahead.
But if you can't....

Business Coach
My approach is based on a simple principle: understand the business properly, decide what matters, then execute it relentlessly.
My 3 Pieces of Paper™ keep the essentials visible: where you are going and why; the money and numbers; and what must happen and when.
Simple. Not necessarily easy. But powerful when everyone understands it and acts on it.
