Plettenberg Bay, South Africa – July 8, 2022 – It is with much pleasure that Martin Korver, founder of the noted environmentally-conscious mobile phone accessory company Greenmouse Africa, announces that he has launched a new blog, bolstered by two inaugural entries. The web-based journal is hosted by a well-known online platform and primarily deals with matters relating to entrepreneurism, an area in which he boasts a great deal of expertise.
In the latest blog entry, titled Martin Korver Discusses Entrepreneurship and Mental Health: Tips to Avoiding Burnout Without Compromising Success, Martin writes about the dangers associated with overwork that specifically affect entrepreneurs due to the demanding nature of creating a company from scratch. In one passage, he describes some steps that entrepreneurs can take when the pressure gets especially bad. “If you’re feeling overwhelmed or stressed out, it’s essential to take a break. This doesn’t mean that you have to stop working altogether, but it does mean taking some time for yourself. Take a few deep breaths, go for a walk, or step away from your work to clear your head. Trying to power through when you’re feeling stressed can be tempting, but this is often counterproductive.”
In the preceding blog entry, titled Martin Korver Discusses the Five Books Every Entrepreneur Should Read, the founder of Greenmouse Africa reviews some texts that he believes are invaluable to anyone endeavoring to start a new business. Regarding The Lean Startup by Eric Rie, his top pick, Martin Korver states that it is “a must-read for any entrepreneur.” He then elaborates on his overall takeaway from the book, explaining that it espouses that it’s best to build a new business “by creating value for your customers” and not by focusing on making money early on. Instead, the text advocates to “focus on building a product that people will love. Measure progress and make decisions based on data, not assumptions—this will help you stay on track and ensure your business is booming.”
