What’s Your Month Going To Be Like?

It's the first week of the month!

Let's start the month with positive affirmations.

The beginning of a new month reminds me of my childhood in Nigeria and the 'Environmental Sanitation' law we had at that time. The law was that on the first Saturday of each month, no-one was allowed out on the streets before 12pm because everyone was meant to be cleaning their house/community; basically it was meant to be a time of cleaning out.

This law may not exist today but I can see the merit in doing a 'clean-out' at the start of each month. The start of the month feels like a fresh start, there's such an optimism, a 'this time will be better' feeling, that such positivity shouldn't be wasted and so it's a good time to do a 'business spring clean'.

It's a perfect time to go over the results you had from the previous month(s), making a note of the things that didn't work, listing out the things in your business that you're not sure of, the things that make you feel frustrated or even cause overwhelm in your business AND make a decision to address the problem(s) or find a solution to them. Most entrepreneurs internalise the challenges they face for many, many months; assuming that somehow it would work itself out, but most of the time it ends up getting worse and you feel worse - I know because I was a master internaliser!

Every problem has a solution, just because you may not have a solution today doesn't mean you won't find a solution.

The first step is having the courage to look for a solution - which may be through you or through someone else.

Now on to our positive affirmations - declare it loud and proud:

• I am grateful for this beautiful day.

• I am enough.

• I see opportunities in every challenge.

• I am bold and courageous

• I am capable and strong.

• I can do whatever I set my mind to do.

Now go out and conquer your month!
