Doing everything by yourself

Working alone and think that you do it all by yourself is the most stupid thing you ever do as an entrepreneur because if you have 24 hours so how many hours you work maximum let say 12 hours a day If you are just focusing on those things which are not important then this is not worth your time. But If you have some most important things which you forgot while doing some unimportant stuff so make sure not to do all work by yourself just outsource your work in these platforms Fiverr, Upwork if you don’t have an employee.

This can also minimize your work hours so you decide your productive working hours and focus on just important stuff of your business. Because working more on unimportant things can make you frustrated but work less but focus on important things can also grow your business and increase your productivity.

Don’t have a clear Vision

Having a clear vision of what you want to achieve is the most important thing. Write your vision on paper and see how you can achieve it. What are the different things you can try to achieve your vision? If you don’t have a vision it means you don't know what you want to achieve and what result you need and if you don't know about them then surely you can start a business but you can not become successful in the long term.

Imagine you start a company and your company's financial situation is also good. Your company is growing every year but you aren't satisfied with this Because you don't identify your vision about what's your endpoint and what you want to achieve. so you can say to yourself that I become what I want to become. This will motivate you to set more vision in your life and achieve them.

Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.

- Jonathan Swift
