It's officially been a year since I started my own business... (and it hasn't been easy) Work/Life balance does not really exist in starting your own business. You wear all the hats: ✴️ Founder ✴️ Marketing ✴️ Administration ✴️ Finance ✴️ Operations ✴️ Sales ✴️ Technology/ IT Half the time my brain is screaming "I'M FAILING"; the other half of me knows that I am responsible for all of my successes as well! ✅ I secured all my leads ✅ I onboarded my clients ✅ I paid all my bills ✅ I created my opportunities Entrepreneurship is not for the faint of heart. It's an uphill battle; it's waking up and fighting for what you want, knowing when to rest, but never calling it quits! So here's to another year of small wins, and learning from each failure! #smallbusinessowner #businessowner #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship ***Manifesting this: One day this won't just be a keepsake from a CES pop-up! It will be the real deal! 🤔

"The world is noisy, invest in good noise cancellation headphones." (best advice I’ve ever heard) Working from home as a neurodivergent individual, I've come to realize the amount of distractions that can shatter my hyper-focus. It's not just the landscapers making their rounds with leaf blowers or the neighbor who seems to save all his loud phone arguments for the bench across my house. It's about preserving that precious bubble of concentration that's so hard to come by and so easy to lose. Noise cancellation headphones have become a necessity. But it doesn't stop there. Here’s how I create a focus-friendly environment: → 𝘾𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙤𝙤𝙧 to minimize interruptions. → 𝙇𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙡𝙤𝙛𝙞 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙘 to set a calm, productive atmosphere. → 𝙇𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙢𝙤𝙙𝙤𝙧𝙤 𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙝𝙣𝙞𝙦𝙪𝙚 to break work into manageable intervals. → 𝙐𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙗𝙡𝙤𝙘𝙠𝙨 to dedicate specific hours to focused work. These strategies aren't just about blocking out sound; they're about creating an environment where your neurodivergent brain can thrive. They help channel your focus into what truly matters, turning potential frustrations into productivity. It's not just about finding quiet. It's about finding your focus, your zone, where you do your best work. And sometimes, all it takes is the right pair of headphones to turn down the noise of the world and tune into the harmony of your thoughts. What strategies do you use to maintain focus in a world that never seems to quiet down? #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #neurodiversityat #neurodiversityinbusiness #productivitytips #noisecancellation
