7 Positive Mantras for an Awesome Day at Work
Solopreneurs are some of the most self-reliant people. They know how powerful the mind is to put things in perspective. Not every day is an easy feat and they know it. So they turn to mantras to keep the momentum going. Here are some of them:
1. Wake up. kick-ass. be kind.
This short mantra is easy to remember and reminds us to give our best shot every day and to stay humble. Exercise kindness towards yourself too. When you sleep and wake up with this mantra, you know you're doing good. No matter what happens throughout the day, this single reminder is a nod to the goodness in you and the good you do.
2. Today is a new day. We're not wasting it.
Solopreneurs have the freedom to take control of their days. They don't spend all day in bed, procrastinating unless they delegated. This mantra serves as a reminder that no day is too bad even when stress greets you in the morning. You've heard it said, live today as if it were your last. But even if it's not your last, today is still definitely worth living. New things can and will happen today even when things are slowing down for you.
3. One year equals 365 possibilities.
It is up to you to create those possibilities. You never know when today is the day you finally meet your dream client. With each day comes the possibility to succeed, to win it. Every day is another shot to make it happen.
4. Don’t wish for it, work for it.
This has to be your mantra from the onset of solopreneurship. Work towards goal-setting rather than mere wishing. If you can, then you will. You are doing it, so don't stop.
5. If it were easy, everyone would be doing it.
When the going gets tough, the tough get going, right? Nothing worth it is easy to get. Your doing this means you are capable of doing the hard things. You can take on these challenges because you have a special mix of what it takes to overcome.
6. It’s the start that stops most people.
Have you ever thought of scrapping your idea because you never thought it was this hard to start? You have so much work ahead of you. So much to study, learn, and make into reality. It's even harder when no one supports you. It doesn’t help that you feel like a novice at this. But every starting line has a finish line too. Look ahead of you.
7. Fail faster.
Picture this: if you trip while you're in the middle of the street, you won't stay fallen for long, will you? Solopreneurs should learn from their failures, map out a better strategy, and take a risk again. Don't stay down for too long because the longer you're down, the more you feel demotivated. Failure happens while you're learning but if you don't learn from failures fast, it will take longer to get to your final destination.
Final Words
Some days, you're feeling good. You feel like it's the perfect day to work. Nothing's going wrong. You've hit an ultimate high on productivity. Then there are the days when you need that push. Mantras can bring enlightenment to your mind and flush out negativity. Then you can focus on doing what you were born to do!
