MM 196- Hidden Time Wasters. A Business Owner's Guide to Schedule Spring Cleaning
[00:00:00] Picture this. Your calendar is like an overstepped closet every time you open it. Task tumble out, deadlines clash, and that precious me time is buried somewhere beneath the layers of busy work.
Sounds familiar?
My name is Maggie. I'm a business and leadership coach, and this is a Maggie's Moment.
Just like we spring clean our homes, our schedules desperately need the same ruthless decluttering on a regular basis. As business owners, we accumulate time wasting tasks. Just like we collect promotional pens everywhere we go. They just keep multiplying when we're not looking.
So today I want to share with you a powerful exercise that I use with my clients. For one week track everything you're doing, at least in 15 minutes increments. Yes. Everything. And it is very important because you'll be surprised at what you'll [00:01:00] discover.
Many of my clients find they're spending sometimes hours on task that don't move the needle in their business. Just imagine you going on social media to post a reel you created and then spending 45 minutes scrolling afterwards that you didn't really intend to do.
While you are tracking your time, look for these three time clutter culprits.
One, tasks that you are doing out of habit rather than that's necessity. That you are not even realizing you do until you start tracking.
Two, activities that could be delegated. Or completely eliminated. And that applies to your personal life and business.
And time blocks that really don't align with your quarterly goals. A side project got its way into your schedule and you're realizing that that doesn't really move your business forward in accordance to whatever plan and goals you had.
[00:02:00] Just last month, my client who did that exercise discovered they were losing a few hours a week scrolling on social media without really noticing it.
If you're ready to do some serious spring cleaning and create massive momentum in your business, even with limited hours, I have something special for you.
Join me tomorrow, Tuesday, April 8th at 11:00 AM for a free webinar Side Hustle Transformation Blueprint. During that masterclass, I'll share with you my proven Time on Demand formula that helps myself and all my clients accomplish more on part-time hours than most people do in a whole work week.
