Sometimes we know we’re in a rut, and sometimes we may be in one and not even recognize it. Exactly what might ruts look like to identify them? As we move into the new year, it’s the perfect time to evaluate: Evaluate your processes and where you’re going, are there places you’re stuck? Give yourself time and space to just be. Put some distance between yourself and your business to shift your view. This clears your mind and allows you to see things you might be overlooking.

In this episode, I discuss what a business rut might look like and how to get out of it. A few big flags are things like avoidance, drudging through, or procrastination. Although those can be just a normal part of dealing with the necessities of business, if you find yourself struggling with the same thing over and over, you might be in a rut.
