Don't Take Yourself Too Seriously


While owning a business is a serious manner, it’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day and forget why you chose this path. Burnout comes at a high cost when you carry your livelihood, family, and employees on your back. You need to stay fresh and think creatively to maximize sales with the least amount of resistance.

In our industry, fun foods open up countless markets, interesting opportunities, and introduce us to extraordinary people. But just like others, there are budgets to meet and people to make happy. We are encouraged to find the fun in life and business.

That’s not to say that every day is a three-ring circus. To the contrary, we’re serious about making sure everyone else is having fun, too, and making money. And that is the crux of all business. People will only want to buy if they trust you believe in the products and want to make the sale.

So do what it takes. Blow off steam, play hooky for a day, or run with your dog in the park. Just learn to relax and find the fun in what you do. Your happiness will inspire confidence and catch on.
