Operating your own business can be very stressful, on good days you can feel on top of the world, thriving with enthusiasm, but everyone has those bad days that require our inner most strength and willpower in order to get through the day.

My personal experience of running a business has been what I call a “rewarding rollercoaster”. I always encourage people to start a business doing something they enjoy. It’s a popular fact, if we enjoy doing something, we will put our heart and soul into it. If you get enjoyment form your work, the bad days will be easier to overcome.

I always imagined working at home to be a wonderful easy life! Boy was I wrong. Owning a home based business can be be extremely demanding. You have to ensure you have a healthy home life and work balance, not easy when you love your job I can tell you! My office is attached to my house and I spend 90% of my time in the office. I guess this really is one problem with doing a job you love…you never wish to leave it!

In addition to obtaining a good work and home life balance, if you work from home you have to take into account the environment you work in. I have severe scoliosis and suffer quite a lot of back pain due to the severity of the curvature and the compression on the rest of my body. As I’ve had Scoliosis since the age of 2, I adapted my posture and means of doing things consequently. My stubbornness hasn’t necessarily helped me. I recently had an independent expert come to my office and inspect my equipment. Unsurprisingly my position at my workstation had not been good; they spelled out how my posture was in fact causing lower back pain. I have now replaced my chair, desk along with other equipment so that i’m not putting extra strain on my body.

I’ve never before considered getting advice regarding back pain relief. I always had the mindset i just had to deal with it.

I’m so glad I’ve started researching scoliosis and back pain in general. I am not really a lover of pain relief in the form of pills so to find some online experts has been an enlightening experience.

Managebackpain.com is the best online resource. You can tell that the lady who runs it knows her stuff and more importantly ‘enjoys what she does’. Passion is everything in relation to business.
