This is not a fight
|
Time and You. It's not a fight. It cant' be won. Sure, you want to do more stuff. But is it, though? What if you could do LESS, in less time? Time is nothing but a constraint. If it were a resource, you could use it at will, you could store it, you could buy and sell it. So, what to do instead? First, make your peace with it. It is what it is. And it's ok. Second, grab a piece of paper and jot down EVERYTHING that comes to your mind you would/could/need to do this year. Don't filter it. Just brain dump it. Third, pick all of them and group them by themes. Now, choose the most relevant. That's your one thing. :) |

And find your way to get to your ideal. Where you can say No confidently. Free of fear.
You can set up a price on: the market your costs your desired margin your desired profit what you want to make at the end of the year your effort how long it takes you to deliver how long it takes you to produce the conditions of your competitors your passion your revenue goal what you feel your worth is what you time your time costs how long it took you to learn and excel at it Here's the pattern with all of these: they're all about you. They have nothing to do with your customer. Nothing to...
