Running a business is not easy and stress is a part of the job. Between all the meetings with clients and the budget trickling down, it can quickly feel like the whole world is against you. If this sounds familiar, remember you are not alone. Measures exist that can help you manage anxiety.

Balance Work and Play
You can’t work all the time so stop pushing yourself so hard. If you put in too many hours you’ll inevitably burn out leaving yourself exhausted and unhealthy. Relax and give yourself time to breathe. If you can, limit yourself to working exclusively in office hours. Taking a step back to recharge your batteries will ensure you are in a good frame of mind to maintain a healthy work lifestyle.

Mobile Optimise your Business
Optimising your mobile to the ebbs and flows of your business will allow you to tackle a multitude of problems as well as attain new opportunities. Your brand will reach a broader audience and you’ll be able to take advantage of the many time management apps such as Clear and RescueTime to help ease stress.
-
Maintain Good Eating Habits
Working as hard as you are, you’ll need all the fuel you can get. Running on an empty stomach is never fun. Don’t go skipping meals because you’re ‘too busy’. When you’re hungry, eat and if you’re especially peckish, take the time out of your schedule for a big meal (You’ve earned it).
-
Delegate the workload
Running a business empire, even a small one is typically beyond the limits of one person. Ensure you avoid taking on more than you can handle. This is about working smart, if you use the right expertise and utilise new disruptive technologies you may achieve rapid results affordably. In the area of winning new customers and growing your business by intelligent marketing online, it is often of little value for you to struggle alone. Bring on hired help to assist you in satisfying the numerous requirements of your business that are giving you stress such as website improvements and social media.

Learn About And Utilise Automation
One of the more notable perks of businesses in the digital age is that you don’t have to do everything yourself anymore. Instead of losing precious hours of the day you can utilise tools to do such rudimentary tasks for you. These include managing your email through wizard programs, automated scheduling of social media, payments and more. Automation can relieve stress by effectively reducing the workload.
A quick and easy way to start this process is to compose a list of all the tasks you do in a day and selecting the ones you wish to delegate.
