THE PLAY OF THE WEEK
Do you feel like you’re working harder than ever but not getting the results you want?
The path to sustained high performance isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing less.
Most successful business owners got where they are by rolling up their sleeves and doing whatever needed to be done. That “figure it out” mentality served them well in the early days.
But here’s the cruel reality: That same work ethic that built your success can become the ceiling that limits your growth.
The leaders who break through to the next level understand this simple principle: You have to subtract to multiply.
GET ON THE ICE
Want to multiply your results by subtracting the right things? Here’s how to start:
- Audit your energy drains: Make a list of activities, clients, or commitments that drain your energy and distract you from your core business. Pick one to eliminate this week.
- Turn meetings into phone calls: Look at your calendar and identify which meetings could be eliminated or turned into a 5-minute phone call instead.
- Schedule your thinking time: Block 25 minutes of distraction-free time to work ON your future business, not just IN your current operations. Protect this time like you would any important meeting.
