Therefore, you will need to battle certain aspects of your existence, when there are lulls in your work, but also to ensure that you keep your enthusiasm for your role in the first place.
This is where being proactive is essential because it allows us to stay focused and ensure that we can keep new aspects of our work alive. What are some of the most important things to consider so you can stay proactive while being self-employed?
Focus on Getting Your Name Out There
It’s so important to track your progress, which is a very common piece of advice in any business but it is such an important one.
As businesses peak and trough, it becomes critical for us to understand where we actually stand in terms of progression.

As soon as work comes in, they start chipping away and as soon as that one is done, they then relax.
Assess Your Progress

- Iceland had the longest daylight hours

Those that get clients and give everything to them wholeheartedly can be exhausted afterwards and then this means there’s a period of recovery that is needed without necessarily learning how to work better.
