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!
Is your sleep sleeping like it should be?
Sleep problems are a global issue and worse the more modernized a society is.
I’ve talked about how I pay for a concierge doctor...every visit, one of the first things they ask about is sleep. It’s why I started paying closer attention to my sleep quality (and getting myself in bed by 9:30 each night).
So let’s take an honest look at your sleep.
If you’re having issues, it might reflect problems or stressors from your freelance work. Or it might be something as simple as your work schedule conflicting with your body’s natural rhythms.
Whatever it is, this week is a great week to look at the problem and think of ways to change it. If you find anything interesting or that you think someone else might find useful, stop by the Academy Facebook group and share.
