5 Best Inspirational Songs for Entrepreneurs

As an entrepreneur, you know that work isn’t always nine to five. In fact, when you’re building your own business it’s safe to say that it’s NEVER just nine to five. Most of us do work on the weekends, early in the morning and late into the evening. Sometimes the best way to make a big pile in the old to-do list is to throw on a motivating playlist and lose yourself in the work. You won’t even notice that the hours flew by! Music is amazing that way because it simultaneously helps us focus and lose track of time.  So what are my top picks for songs to pump you up to do some of your best work? See below.

1. Taking Care of Business
by Bachman-Turner Overdrive

Why it made the list: I love feel-good songs and this is a classic. It’s a song about getting work done so it’s an obvious choice for the list. Although it came out in the mid 70’s, it has such an 80’s vibe that when I listen to it, I imagine myself in a freeze frame, doing work with my fist in the air.
​
Our favorite lyrics: “Taking care of business every day, taking care of business, every way”

2. She Works Hard for the Money
by Donna Sommers

Why it made the list: This song (again) is a classic. It’s fast paced so it invigorates me at the same time as inspiring me. I love that the focus is on not just working, but working hard!
​
Our favorite lyrics: “She works hard for the money, so hard for it honey”

3. Nine to Five
by Dolly Parton 

Why it made the list: Musically, this is an upbeat song although sometimes the lyrics do put down the idea of working nine to five. Even more reason to be an entrepreneur and not have a boss that as Dolly says "is out to get me."
​
Our favorite lyrics: "Pour myself a cup of ambition"
I just love the idea of starting off your day ambitiously, and of course, with caffeine. 

4. Hard Days Night
by The Beatles 

Why it made the list: Can you really call it a list of the "best" songs if a Beatles song isn't included? I didn't think so either. This song is inspirational because it reminds us that the reason we work so hard is so we can enjoy quality time with our loved ones. 
​
Our favorite lyrics: "It's been a hard day's night, and I been working like a dog...but when I get home to you I find the things that you do will make me feel alright"

5. On My Way
​by Charlie Brown

Why it made the list: This is an uplifting song for when you’re in a slump. Maybe you haven’t gotten a new client in a while or you’re not sure what your next step is. This song is basically saying that while I might not be there now, I will be soon!
​
Our favorite lyrics: “Take a breath, shake it off and say
I'm on my way”
​
