94 - Time Management

Welcome back to the Scale Your Small Business Podcast with your host, Jillian Flodstrom. Today, we’re diving into time management. This can be a big topic that spans many areas of your business, but that means it’s just that important. Let’s break it down.   When we think about time management, it’s important to avoid ‘analysis paralysis.’ This is a loop where you get caught preparing to the point where you can’t execute. Being so terrified of failure and making a mistake that you’re unable to get off the ground will hinder your progress. You can’t continue waiting for a sign–it’s time to get it done.    A great way to start moving through procrastination is to shorten the amount of time you have. By removing ourselves from the annual mindset–12 months=a year–to a 12-week mindset, you create an urgency for yourself to get whatever you have to do off the ground.    Key Takeaways   Analysis Paralysis, or planning until you can’t execute, will halt your progress. Don’t be afraid of failure! Eliminate procrastination by allowing yourself less time to do so.  Shorten your annual mindset from 12 months to 12 weeks.
