Hey there, fellow entrepreneur, I see you.
You’re juggling countless tasks, striving for progress, and battling daily fires.
But you know deep down there’s a more efficient way to tackle your workload and weekly routine.
Well, buckle up because I’m about to share some key habits and strategies to help you crush this week like a pro ????.
1. Review Your Goals Regularly: It’s easy to set ambitious goals at the start of the year and then let them gather dust. I know, I know. We’ve all been there.
But here’s the truth: consistent goal review is the secret to success. You need to look at your goals. Often. Take a few minutes to revisit your quarterly goals. Research from the Dominican University of California indicates that those who write down their goals are 42% more likely to achieve them.
So, don’t just set and forget—make it a weekly habit to reassess your objectives and course-correct as needed. I make this a part of my Work Day Start Up Ritual and it’s really helped me keep my goals at the forefront of my mind.
2. Schedule Time for Every Aspect of Your Business: Ever feel like you’re spinning your wheels, bouncing from one task to another without making significant progress? Yep. You’re like most small business owners!
This is why I love focused theme days and task batching.
What does this mean? You set specific time blocks for each key area of your business, whether it’s marketing, client check ins, or planning your schedule. According to a survey by RescueTime, users who schedule their work in time blocks are a whopping 87% more productive. That’s pretty dang amazing.
So, streamline your workflow by theming your weekdays and watch your productivity soar. If you want a hand with this, I am in Instagram stories every single day (Monday through Friday) giving free coaching on how to theme your days as an entrepreneur.
3. Declutter Your Workspace: Now, before you roll your eyes, hear me out. That cluttered desk of yours is costing you valuable time and energy. A study by Brother International found that the average office worker spends a staggering 76 hours per year searching for misplaced items on their desk. Let that sink in. That’s insane!!!
So, take a few minutes to tidy up your workspace. Not only will it save you time in the long run, but it’ll also create a more conducive environment for focused work. What I mean is this: when I sit down to work with my desk alllll cleared out and a pretty candle burning, my brain knows: It’s go time.
Try it and see for yourself!
These tasks may seem minor, but trust me, they pack a punch. And the best part? They’ll take you less than 10 minutes to tackle this morning.
Remember, as an entrepreneur, every minute counts. By implementing these simple yet effective strategies, you’ll reclaim control of your time, boost your productivity, and get closer to your business goals.
