Square is an incredibly accessible payment processor for small businesses. Most of the businesses we work with use Square. My other business, Bear Dance Hemp Company, also uses Square, and we have taken out a couple of loans with them in the past while tackling various projects and store improvements. Square Loans offer small businesses a convenient way to access funding, but it's essential to understand both the benefits and drawbacks before deciding if it's the right fit for your business.

Everyone is different and perfection is futile. There is no singular answer for how to feel organized, stay on task, increase productivity or use time more wisely. However, I’ve come to rely on a few systems to keep myself in check. If I follow the systems, I have to think less about the big picture and can blissfully focus on the details. This helps relieve anxiety caused by an overwhelming number of responsibilities. That deer in the headlights feeling is the biggest thing that will keep me from being productive and completing tasks.
