Mental health is one of the most underrated and overlooked keys to entrepreneurial success. In order to take care of their mental health, entrepreneurs should follow some simple steps as it acts like a catalyst that allows an individual to make bold and confident decisions in life.
Healthy lifestyle choices have immense advantages like a reduced risk of chronic diseases and increased longevity hence, self-care activities or inculcating a habit to feel good or content emotionally, physically and mentally must be done regularly or made a part of one’s routine. Self-care can include avoiding habits that affect one’s mood and emotional well-being or be as small as sleeping on time, drinking lots of water and applying sunscreen as they go a long way in helping a person take care of their body, skin, mental health etc.
Talking about creating a self-care routine for entrepreneurs, Ajeet Kumar Singh, MD, CEO and Co-Founder of SAVE Solutions Pvt Ltd, shared in an interview with HT Lifestyle, “Maintaining a healthy morning routine can go a long way in ensuring a good mental health. Waking up early in the morning can help one start their day with a positive mind set. Following a morning fitness regime can help an entrepreneur prepare for the many decisions that need to be taken throughout the day. Listening to podcasts or talks delivered by motivational speakers can also help boost the positivity and create affirmative thoughts. These habits along with a regular reading habit to keep abreast with the industry trends can help relieve the many stresses dealt by entrepreneurs on a daily basis.”
