Raise your hand if you sometimes miss the simpler days when it was just you and the idea.

Raise your hand if you occasionally daydream about those early days when it was just you, your laptop, and endless possibilities 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️ Running a business gets complex fast! Sometimes that early simplicity feels truly blissful.

Nostalgia is normal: It’s easy to romanticize those less complicated startup days.

Growth brings new challenges along with exciting opportunities.

Do This, Instead:

  • Recapture that spark: Schedule time to brainstorm new ideas without the pressure of execution.
  • Simplify where possible: Can you streamline any of your current processes or systems?
  • Delegate strategically: Outsource tasks that drain your creative energy.
  • Remember your ‘why’: Connect with the passion that fueled you at the beginning.

How do you get back to that place of early-stage excitement? Share your tips!
