Who is the worst boss you’ve ever had?

The Main Quest

There are a few stories just about everyone has.

We’ve all had crappy restaurant experience.
Everyone had an embarrassing moment in school.

And, absolutely everyone has had a bad boss.

Do me a favor. I want you to think about that boss. Picture them. Hear the words they said to you. And think about how it made you feel.

All done? Good.

I hate to break it to you. That ISN’T the worst boss you’ve ever had.

That title goes to… YOU.

Think about all the negative things you’ve said to yourself.
Reflect on the hard time you give yourself for minor mistakes.
Ponder the punishments and guilt you have laid on yourself.

Pretty bad, right?

I know that feeling. I’ve been a pretty bad boss. I’ve spent the last few months beating myself up because I wasn’t doing enough. I’ve spent them fighting with myself about forgetting small details.

But I decided to lay that guy off and be a better manager, give myself grace, and knock it off with the negative self-talk.

Your Main Quest this week is to be a better boss to yourself.

The Weekly Side Quest

The Main Quest this week is pretty challenging. So, I’ll keep the side quest light this week. Look at your business's social media profiles and ensure that your profile photos and cover images are up-to-date and consistent across the various platforms.

This shouldn’t take more than 5-10 minutes, but it will be valuable as you publish more on your profiles leading into the holiday shopping season.
