3-question assessment to STOP creating extra work for yourself

Solopreneur Tip of the Day: Stop creating extra work for yourself!

If you are a chronic over-worker, or if you love the work you do, or if you are a high achiever, then you might be creating unnecessary extra tasks that are leading to overwhelm and preventing you from being able to enjoy your life and business to the fullest.

We all have a tendency of over-complicating things... which means you probably have more than a couple unnecessary busy tasks on your plate! Do ongoing assessments of your task lists to cut away the fluff.

Here are 3 questions to ask yourself:

  1. Where am I unnecessarily duplicating work in my business?
  2. What makes me think I need to do these extra tasks?
  3. What would happen if I cut my task list in half, right now?

TAKE ACTION ON THIS — Do the above 3-question assessment to check in with yourself, and then IMPLEMENT your decisions. You've got this!

(And if you need support with this, then reach out at hello[at]saganmorrow[dot]com and I'll provide you with a few options for how we can work together to make this DOABLE for you.)
