Drained in Your Home Based Business from the Holidays?

Tweet

Hi Lotters! I am new here and just wanted to get something off of my chest in order to break the ice. I have a confession as a long time networker. Instead of the holiday season creating a boost for my business like most people, I feel as if my business is suffering from the holiday season's constant and consistent activities. I thought that I was ready for the networking, holiday, and birthday parties that would boost my business. I had a plan and everything on how it would work only to find that I am pooped! Even after Christmas I tried to get myself together, and it has taken me days! I am usually the type who is obsessed with her business, often going over details that have already been planned and making sure that I dot all i's and cross all t's. I am a little worried for New Years although that is the time home based business should have their greatest boosts. I hope I won't be drained all through the holiday season. The effect it has taken on my business is great! I find I am spending more time to get things together. I find that I am spending lots of my time, "getting somewhere" geared to the season. I find I don't have my normal energy to effectively call back or create leads I find that I am not in the most positive mood because of lack of sleep and during increased times of "rest". Is the holiday festivities hurting or having an unexpected effect on your business or money?
