3 GOALS EVERY ENTREPRENEUR NEEDS IN 2022

By now, you should have an idea of what you want your business to achieve in 2022, but have you considered how you will grow during that year — and the impact that could have on your business? Often, entrepreneurs and business leaders take on the identity of their companies, but in order to personally thrive and see their companies take off, they have to grow right alongside it.

GOAL NO. 2: SAVE MORE

Many of the dimes you earn as a business owner go back into the company, but don’t forget to consider your future. Is your retirement plan in order? Do you have a plan should your company need to close? Will your family be secure? Consider these questions and hire a trusted financial advisor who can help you find personal investment success.

To do so, consider these goals all entrepreneurs must focus on at some point in their careers.

GOAL NO. 1: GET A LIFE

GOAL NO. 3: MEET NEW PEOPLE

You are more than the company you started. Plus, having hobbies or personal interests outside of your work can help you excel in work. It allows your brain to grow in new ways, sparking fresh ideas and perspectives. Consider activities that you’re interested in learning more about — like painting, podcasting, reading, or running — and get started. Maybe you’ll fail, but just keep trying! You may find a new activity that brings you the joy you need.

Becoming inundated by daily, menial tasks can make us miss opportunities. This is where meeting new people can be so valuable! By doing so, you create a network of people who have different experiences than your own. They can help you see beyond your biases and discover a new path. Who knows? You just might find the next great venture for your company!

MYTHS SURROUNDING GEORGIA DUIs WHAT ’S REAL AND WHAT ’S JUST LEGAL SMOKE?

MYTH NO. 2 If you are not drunk, you cannot get a DUI.

Navigating a DUI means trudging through many misconceptions. Some people may not know the first thing about what to expect in the event of a DUI, others may only know what they have heard via hearsay or seen on TV, and a few may have a good idea of how the process works with some questions.

This is also false. The legal limit is 0.08% blood alcohol content (BAC). For commercial vehicle operators, the limit is 0.04%, and for those drivers under the age of 21, the limit is 0.02%. You can certainly be arrested for a DUI without feeling intoxicated.

DUI processes vary from state to state and case to case, and thus, many myths arise.

MYTH NO. 3 I won’t lose my license or serve jail time if it is my first DUI offense.

MYTH NO. 1 An attorney cannot help if you’ve failed your sobriety and/or breath test.

Again, this is false. The law requires that all DUI offenders, regardless of whether or not it is their first offense, serve at least 24 hours in jail and potentially face up to 12 months in jail, along with a routine 12-month driver’s license suspension. It is important that you know and understand your rights and have proper representation to ensure your rights are protected. Call us today for assistance, questions, or concerns!

This is incorrect. If you perform a field sobriety test, the law enforcement officer evaluates your performance and this can be subjective. A law enforcement officer must follow a standardized procedure to make this test valid. This means that if any portion of the test deviates from the standardized procedure, the sobriety test may not be upheld in court. Also, physiological conditions are known to impact the accuracy of the breath test. Low body fat, an empty stomach before drinking, or being diabetic can impact the breathalyzer’s ability to retrieve an accurate reading. An attorney can use any of these factors to nullify these tests.
