Thought

The goal is not to be perfect by the end. The goal is to be better today.

What does that quote make you feel?

It’s a relief for me. I am 100% a perfectionist, and I know that it has held me back from pursuing certain goals because I don’t believe that I will ever reach the level I want, so I don’t even try.

What about you? Are you holding yourself back like me? Maybe when it comes to learning some of the tools you know are essential to running your business?

Let me encourage you.

The goal of learning how to set up your own automated emails isn’t so that you know everything there is to know about your email platform. The goal is to help you build relationships with your audience without needing the help of a VA.

The goal of learning how to create a streamlined process for your business isn’t to build a complex network of apps that constantly need to be maintained. Having a streamlined process gives you the freedom to spend your time how you want to, rather than on a ton of repetitive tasks.

You don’t have to become an expert. You just need to give yourself permission to learn a little something new every day.

I’m committed to stop holding myself back, and I’m committed to helping you learn something new every day!

Will you let me do that?

Streamline

I talk a lot about technology and automation, and that might be intimidating.

You may not consider yourself tech-savvy (yet), and that’s totally OK!

The first step to streamlining your business doesn’t require technology at all.

You can start to save time right away by simply paying more attention to what you are actually spending most of your time doing.
‌
You may be surprised to discover that your feeling of overwhelm running your business is actually a misconception.

Or rather, it’s a combination of unintentional procrastination (in the form of unnecessary tasks on your to-do list), lack of planning/process, and fear or hesitancy towards the tools that can make your day run smoothly.

Action

If you haven’t in a while, track your time this week…I mean, like really track it… down to the hour or even half hour.

Don’t write down “worked on my business”, write down to the level of “wrote my newsletter” or “created content for Instagram”.

Then make sure you don’t miss next week’s TSA Weekly for next steps.

Let it be Easy,
