Do you ever feel overwhelmed? Or sometimes feel like there is too much on your plate?
Being an entrepreneur makes it easy to feel overwhelmed. Events for networking, partnership opportunities, training sessions, company ideas, new projects, innovative activities, and many more…
That is why knowing how to say no and what to say no to is essential to our business success. We have to remember that your success no longer depends on your ability to prove yourself, but rather on your ability to prioritize your plan and ensure that it's aligned with that next-level evolution of your business.
In today’s episode of the Lean Out Your Business Podcast, I'm going to discuss things that are really helpful when you're looking at creating space for your business and making tough decisions to let things go. The first is getting clear on what's working and what's not in your business, so you know which things to start with by saying no to. The second thing that we're going to dive into is how you make those tough trade-offs when the reality is that there's something new you want to do. And then the third is time creep, which is something that leads to overworking and can end up wreaking havoc on your schedule and on your commitments.
Listen to the full episode to learn the importance of saying no and what to say no to, to gain back your valuable time & energy for your top business plans or priorities.
