How do you stay motivated on 'slow days' as a founder?

When I feel I'm having a rough day I discipline myself to write down a list of things that I need to accomplish before the end of the day. Even if the results are not always there immediately I can still have a sense of accomplishment and be proud of the progress. All the best Lewis

Well, not every day has to be fast day. Sometimes it's okay (and also necessary) to slow down!

I use the time to connect with my team and get their feedback or brainstorm new ideas. It often leads to productive discussions.

I set small, achievable goals for the day. Completing these gives me a sense of accomplishment and keeps me going.

I take time to reflect on past achievements and milestones. It helps put things in perspective and boosts my morale.

I catch up on industry news and trends. Staying informed keeps me engaged and motivated.

I find that listening to motivational podcasts or reading inspiring books can provide a much-needed boost on slow days.

I use slower days to declutter my workspace and organize my thoughts. A clean environment helps me think clearly.

I often take the time to write down new ideas or explore potential innovations. It keeps my creativity flowing.

I check in with my network and strengthen relationships. Networking often leads to new opportunities.

On slow days, I often dive into reading or learning something new related to the industry. It keeps me inspired and productive.

For me, having a morning routine is key. I spend a couple of hours each morning meditating and practicing yoga. I don't check my phone under much later. This helps me start my day from a clear and focused place. I find that no matter how "slow" my day starts, my practice always gets me to a good place.
