How to Keep Going When You Feel Like Giving Up

Being a stay-at-home mom and entrepreneur is hard. There’s no denying it. Between juggling clients, family life, and all of the other commitments that come with being an online entrepreneur, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and like giving up. But for one mama, she managed to push through when times got tough.

Let’s take a look at how she did it.

Rethink Your ‘Why’

One of the most important things this mama did was to rethink her ‘why.’ She reflected on why she had started her business in the first place and remembered why she had chosen to be an entrepreneur - for herself and not for someone else. Knowing your ‘why’ can remind you of where you want your business to go which can help keep you motivated during tough times.

Set Realistic Goals

Another thing this mama did was set realistic goals for herself and her business. Setting achievable goals will keep you from feeling overwhelmed or discouraged when something doesn’t turn out as expected. It also helps you stay focused on what needs to be done so that you can reach your desired end result – whatever that may be!

Believe in Yourself and Your Ability to Succeed

It's easy for moms to feel overwhelmed with all the tasks they need to do each day and start doubting their own abilities. To keep going when things get tough, it's important to remember that you are capable of achieving your goals—no matter how hard it may seem right now. Believe in yourself, focus on what needs to be done, and take it one step at a time.

Be Passionate About Your Work

When faced with an insurmountable task or challenge, it can be hard to stay motivated. That’s why it’s important to be passionate about your work as a mom—focus on why you’re doing what you’re doing and how rewarding it will be once you reach your goal(s). This will help you stay focused and motivated even when things become difficult or overwhelming.

Persevere Through Setbacks

No matter how hard we try, sometimes we just can't avoid setbacks or challenges along the way. It's easy for moms (and anyone else) to get discouraged by these setbacks, but don't! Instead, persevere through them and use them as learning experiences—you'll be surprised at what you can achieve if you just keep pushing forward despite adversity!

Take Risks and Be Open To New Ideas

Taking risks is scary but necessary if we want our lives (and businesses) to grow. Don't be afraid of failure—take risks, try new things, and see where they lead! You might surprise yourself with the results! Being open-minded is also key; don’t be afraid to consider new ideas or solutions that others suggest—you never know where they could lead!

Tap into Your Support System

Finally, this mama tapped into her support system whenever times were tough. Whether it was friends, family members, or other entrepreneurs in her industry, having people who are there to encourage and motivate her kept her going when things were feeling especially hard. Having a support system can make all of the difference when trying to stay motivated during difficult times!

Staying motivated as an online entrepreneur isn't always easy but it is doable if you take the right steps. For one mama, she managed to push through when times got tough by rethinking her ‘why’, setting realistic goals for herself and her business, and tapping into her support system whenever needed. Keep these tips in mind next time you're feeling overwhelmed - they just might help get you back on track!
