Calling it a day.

As entrepreneurs, there are days when we just can't get the needle to move. We may be distracted, unfocused, tired or stressed.

If we were in a job and having a day like that, we might ask our boss to call it a day and come back again tomorrow to start afresh.

But we are our own boss, and that boss rarely is empathetic and generous towards us unless we explicitly train it to be.

Sometimes, the best thing we can do is to call it a day instead of hustling through and making it likely that the next day ends up similar.
