How long is your to-do list? You’re in business for yourself, so I’m sure it’s about a mile long.
Are you where you thought you’d be in business at this point? It’s probably the case that you thought you’d have some bigger projects completed and that you’d be further along at this point.
It’s no wonder it’s hard to get anything done and complete projects. There’s only so much you can handle in a day. It’s overwhelming and so it’s much easier to just put it off.
Are you a procrastinator? That’s not an attribute many of us want to have. In fact, I think you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who takes pride in being a procrastinator.
Yet, this is a problem that probably most people deal with at least to some degree. It’s human nature to want to seek pleasure and avoid pain. Unfortunately, many of the tasks associated with your business are considered painful, whether you’re conscious of that or not.
For some people, this isn’t such a huge deal. Maybe they’ll procrastinate a little bit here or a little bit there, but overall it doesn’t affect their business too much.
If you want to save a lot of time and get more done, then outsourcing is one of the smartest ways to do that. When you outsource, you hire people for tasks you would otherwise have to do yourself. Think about all the things you have to do in a day for your business. How great would it feel to unload tasks you don’t like to do or tasks you don’t have time to do?
The fact is that we are all so busy. You’re running your own business and trying to wear all the hats. Well, it doesn’t have to be that way. You can outsource any task you want so you can scale up your business, take a load off your chest, get more done, and potentially earn even more money than you’re earning right now.
We’re all different.
It’s important to keep that in mind when you’re looking for ways to be more productive. It’s easy to think that just because a successful person does XYZ, that that’s exactly what you should be doing as well.
Sometimes, that’s not the case. You’re in a different place right now, with a different body, a different rhythm, with a different mindset. What works for me might not work exactly for you, and that’s okay.
That’s one of the reasons why it’s so important to assess for yourself when you’re most productive.
In some cases, you don’t really have the luxury of picking and choosing when you get to work. Maybe you have a day job and you have to work in between certain hours, or else.
