Hi there.Just some context information, I’m a 22 year old with an online business I’ve been running and steadily growing for the past few years. I don’t have any other source of income other than my business and am fully self-employed.I’ve always struggled with motivation. Since the business is no longer “new”, the novelty is going away and it’s harder for me to stay motivated to do the daily tasks. It’s a sole proprietorship with a network of contractors, so it’s a one-man job.I definitely want to continue the business. I’ve found my niche, I’m seeing solid returns, and there is growth potential in my niche. But, quite simply, I’m losing motivation and this is making it very difficult for me to keep myself accountable.I’m very influenced by those around me. My friends whom I hang around with are all terrific people, but none of them are entrepreneurs. None of them run a business. They all work “regular” 9-5 jobs. So I can’t connect with them in this realm.I have noticed that when I meet and connect with other entrepreneurs, my motivation skyrockets. It’s odd how effective it is.The issue is—with lockdowns, it’s hard to find other entrepreneurs with whom to connect to. Networking conferences are obviously shut down, and I still can’t find a good enough face-to-face digital platform for entrepreneurs. Clubhouse is the closet thing I’ve found but it’s not enough.To those of you who have been running a business or venture in an area for several years now—what techniques or practices have you integrated into your lives to keep yourselves motivated? Especially in these times.Thanks. see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
