The time you spend on a task has some relationship to the quality of work you end up producing.
Now this number shouldn’t mean that you completely forgo time for yourself. It is important to have some personal time.
A starting guideline might be something like 10{9426e48ae5c3b3ab02332dd167966d9e9ea7aa41d6d2b8540a0550b4f9308632} of your week, or 17 hours. What is more important than these specific targets is that you spend enough time on your business to ensure that you’re successful and that you spend enough time outside of your business to ensure that you have a healthy balance.
Allow for unanticipated interruptions in your schedule. This means leaving some empty spaces during the day or in some way being flexible enough to handle interruptions. If the unexpected does not happen, time is available to do something we were saving until the next day.
Schedule work early in the day so it is less likely to be crowded out by unexpected events like meeting an old friend. People who participated in a major study on stress, reported scheduling personal time into there day as the most frequently used method for reducing stress in their lives.
Tomorrow we’ll be discussing a little about “I’ll Stop Procrastinating Tomorrow”.
hey, I’m Kim + I am ridiculously passionate about helping you to work smarter and not harder + to realize how freaking amazing you actually are, exactly as you are and how easy business really can be when you are in alignment + simplify + add systems to organize your business + plan your business growth. I’ve been geeking out about online business, online marketing + systems + personal development + all that stuff since I created my first business back in 2006 + sold it.
This whole business owner thing is not for the faint of heart, there is a reason why most businesses fail!
While the road to burnout doesn’t look the same for everyone on it there are some similarities you typically experience on this path!
- You’re always in the weeds of your business
- You don’t have efficient systems and processes (or maybe none at all)
- You aren’t delegating effectively
- You can’t take time off
- You’re trying to do too many things at once + wearing all the hats
It’s exhausting just thinking about it! But there’s a way off the hamster wheel!
If you’re overwhelmed, overworked, stressed out, and worried that if you take time off the bottom will fall out from beneath you and your business will fall apart.
Then, you are in the right place my friend, been there, done that, got the tee-shirt and I’d love to support you in ending the cycle!
