Reclaim Your Time: Why Time Management ISN’T About Hustle
We get bombarded with messages about working MORE. But the most successful entrepreneurs work SMARTER.
We equate long hours with success, leading to burnout, not breakthroughs.
- Track your time (honestly): Most people drastically underestimate where their hours actually go.
- Focus on your ‘Zone of Genius’: What ONLY you can do? Outsource/delegate the rest ruthlessly.
- Pareto Principle (80/20 Rule): 80% of your results come from 20% of your activity – find YOUR 20%.
- Time blocks, not to-do lists: Assign tasks a chunk of time, prevents endless task-juggling.
- Protect your focus time: Turn off notifications, set “Do Not Disturb” boundaries.
- Energy management matters: Work on high-value tasks when your brain is freshest.
