Every month we run through a series of questions to help you run your freelance business like a bigger business—“self-coaching” your way to better results and a better life. You can view a condensed version of this month’s coaching prompts here.
Happy Production Month COOs!
This is the month we look at operations...how things are flowing with the inner workings of your business. This August, we’re focused on the employee experience...asking self-coaching questions to make sure you’re the best employer you’ve ever had.
Being a great “employer” doesn’t happen overnight. It only comes from strong habits and careful practice, so let’s get started!
What’s your morning mood like?
How often do you pay attention to how you feel when you sit down to work?
Whether you start your day at 7AM or 3PM, it’s worth doing a quick emotional check in occasionally. It might seem like a small thing, but it’s a great way to catch small stressors and issues before they become big ones.
Ask yourself how you feel and why. Try tracking it this week and see where you fall so you can make adjustments to make sure you’re giving yourself a great employee experience every day.
