How do You Eat an Elephant?

Being a young entrepreneur is not in the least as glamorous as it sounds. It's a lot of hard work and you're constantly on the go. You don't have time to do the things a normal person can do because you're too busy trying to make a better life for yourself. All of this can become very overwhelming very fast. So what do you do? You can't panic because that won't do anything but make the situation worse. You have to stay cool, calm, and collected at all times. Just ask yourself this: How do you eat an elephant? The answer is simple, one bite at a time.

Most of us aren't established enough to have assistants to help us with our projects; we are essentially in this on our own. So imagine that you have a deadline to meet, and you have a million things that you need to do in order to make that deadline. You can't do everything at once. You have to take it step by step. You may have 30 things that you need to get done by tomorrow and its already 11:45pm, but now is not the time to freak out. The most successful people in this world seem to be carefree. Even though that could be so far from the truth, at least they don't show it. Once you start to panic then you start to fear, and people can smell fear from a mile away. So instead of panicking, be proactive. Start with the most urgent thing and work your way down your list of to-do's until you finish it all.  You may be starving and sleep deprived, but that's just some of the sacrifices you have to make.

Although your work load may seem as big as an elephant, it is doable. Take the simple approach and do things step by step. It's less overwhelming when you focus on things one at a time as opposed to looking at the big picture. Learn how to be more efficient in what you do, and things won't seem so bad. Find a system that's right for you and stick to it. Once your hustle has paid off then you can hire someone to do all the dirty work for you, but until then grab a fork and star chewing!
