Professional athletes spend many hours a week training for their sports, then spend the rest of their time making sure they get the proper nutrition. While the rest of us are content with doing moderate exercise two or three times a week, athletes spend almost all of their waking hours moving towards their professional goals. Entrepreneurs need to learn this lesson all over again.
Entrepreneurs, especially those who work at home, think being your own boss is much easier than working for one. They often don't realize that they need to oversee all aspects of their businesses, and not just operations. To keep a business afloat, they need to keep learning and keep growing the business -- simply doing their job day in and day out won't be enough in the long run.

Athletes know this, which is why they spend almost all of their waking hours taking care of their health. They know that the more they improve their skills, the more likely they'll succeed in their sport, and the more likely they'll reach the Olympic Games one day.
Often, athletes reach a limit, just the same way entrepreneurs reach a dead end in their businesses. What do athletes do in this situation? They improvise -- they find new diets, new exercises, and new habits that push their limits just a bit further. Often it's these "little inches" that make athletes stand out over others.
And what happens when athletes fail? The best athletes don't give up and go down to the little leagues, the same way weak entrepreneurs fold their business and go back to working for someone else. Athletes take in the harsh lesson, find out where they fell short, and get back on their feet as quickly as possible.
Likewise, entrepreneurs shouldn't be afraid of failure -- it's actually an important part of growing a business. The more you fail, the more you learn, and the more likely you'll do things right the next time around. So the next time things get tough, think like an athlete.
