Episode 63 – I’ve been glued to my phone lately – and I’m totally ok with it
I’ve been glued to my phone lately And here’s why I’m completely ok with it.
I’ve been working alot lately, glued to my phone and my laptop. The week before school went back especially, I had my phone out on almost every walk I went on, in the sauna, before bed, while watching TV (or not watching evidently), once at 11pm because I couldn’t sleep and my brain was ticking with ideas I had to write down.
While my kids are having breakfast I’m on my laptop. After they go to bed laptop. Husband pops to the shop - laptop. Phone Laptop Laptop Phone.
From an outsider’s perspective this might sound a bit obsessive. And you know what - it is! And here’s why that’s ok. Because on some level - you have to be obsessed with your business in order for it to grow.
Right now I am in a hustle phase in my business - I’m going after things, I’m setting new KPIs for myself and the business and I’m not resting until they’re reached. I’m allowing my brain to think creatively and I’m harnessing every idea and acting on it immediately, even if it’s messy, even if everything isn’t perfectly thought out. And the compounded action is creating my own momentum.
I know I won’t hustle this hard the whole year, and I don’t INTEND to. my hustle-o-metre will change each month and quarter to align with my goals and what the business needs from me then and each term with what my family needs from me. But I do INTEND to now. This is a very intentional hustle phase and you know what. I actually love it! Can we normalise - working in your business, working on your business, and actually loving working on your business? Because from where I’m sitting it’s pretty freakin good!
