Are you looking for ways to free up your time as a content creator? Here are 5 ways to work smarter, not harder as a content creator this year.

Tip 1 to work smarter, not harder in 2021: Evaluate your true free time

 Before we can jump in and share a few ways to help you save time and energy as a content creator or influencer this year, we have to take a step back and talk about your schedule and your actual free time.

Our tip is to use the 168 hours exercise to figure out where your time is currently going.

168 hours = 24 hours x 7 days a week

Write out the time spent:

·      Eating

·      Sleeping

·      Working

·      Commuting

·      Working on your side hustle

·      Exercising

·      Spending time with your family etc.

Take that total amount of hours and subtract it from 168 hours = your actual free time.

Tip 2 to work smarter, not harder in 2021: Get Organized

If one of your goals to produce content for your podcast, Instagram, blog, YouTube channel, TikTok, etc, then you probably need some form or organization to make sure you meet your content goals. 

 We recommend picking 2-3 tools to stay organized and scheduling out a time to plan out your schedule.
