The biggest mistake I made when starting out,
Focusing on the wrong things.
Like:
• Multitasking too much
• Overcommitting to too many clients
• Trying to be everything for everyone
It costs me time and energy, but here’s how you can fix it in 30 seconds:
1. The objective(s)
What’s the outcome?
Better organization?
Faster task completion?
Less stress for your client?
Get specific. Clarity is key.
2. Identify gaps
What’s slowing you down?
Too many distractions?
Poor communication?
Lacking the right tools?
(PS: It’s not your typing speed.)
3. Solving the gaps
• List every part of your process.
• Identify where you’re losing time.
• Fix that one part first.
Once fixed, move on to the next bottleneck.
Just chatted with a founder who said hiring one ops person saved him 15 hours a week.
Now he spends that time building, selling, and thinking clearly.
Assigning tasks isn’t just about saving time
It’s about buying back your time.
Your calendar should reflect your value, not your to-do list.
Elon once said
“To leave an impact, you must work at least 80 hours a week.”
Most people hear that and immediately shut down.
They want the success, but not the sacrifice.
They want the results, but not the responsibility.
Hard work isn’t outdated, it’s just unpopular.
But in a world full of shortcuts, consistency still wins.
