Take a Step Back to Plan, Recharge, and Succeed
One of the biggest challenges small business owners face is stepping away from the daily grind to look at the bigger picture. It’s hard to find time to plan, recharge, and evaluate what’s working and what’s not—I know because I’ve been there myself.

When you’re feeling stuck or struggling to hit your financial goals, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Maybe you have a growing list of unfinished tasks, or you’re stretched too thin to tackle everything on your plate. According to online marketing expert Neil Patel, small businesses often face two major hurdles: a lack of resources and difficulty creating impactful content.
