So your priorities have changed?

You don’t want to do that kind of work any more?

You don’t enjoy that type of work any more?

That’s great. That’s why we work for ourselves, so we can change course as and when we feel like it.

I have a load of work on my plate that I really don’t want to do. It’s paying the bills and I’ve made promises to people so I can’t just turn it down.

But I’m also putting steps in place so I don’t need to do it forever. So, once these projects are done, I can focus on work that makes a huge impact on people.

Flexibility, freedom and, yes, a bit more money. Those are the reasons most of us started our own businesses.

So if you’re feeling locked in and 2020 has changed everything for you emotionally, then take advantage of that flexibility and draw up your plans to change direction.

Do it carefully, do it profitably but make sure you do it.

It’s why you started your business in the first place.
