“I’ve hit a glass ceiling I can’t break through no matter how hard I work” “I hired a team… and I STILL feel like I’m doing the work of 5 people” “I could work around the clock and still not get it all done” Any of those sound like you? I hear things like this all the time from new clients before they start our programs. And yes… I have been there too. So don’t worry, you’re not alone in your frustration. But WHY are these problems so common? There can be a lot of smaller reasons… But what I’ve seen over the last 15 years is that many of these reasons fall into two main categories: 1. Most people focus on getting MORE done… instead of getting the RIGHT things done. The truth is in order to stop spinning your wheels and reach the next level of success… …You need BOTH. You need to be able to set goals and execute on tasks that best serve your long term objectives… And you also need those goals and tasks to serve each other and improve your performance — so you can get more done every day. That’s called synergy. When your efforts combine for even greater results. And the only way to achieve it is by choosing and setting your goals properly… and staying focused on the RIGHT tasks. 2. Most people don’t know how to optimize their calendar. They spend a bunch of time scheduling what they want to get done (usually everything under the sun), and when they want to do it… But then they STILL only get through half of it… or less. Why? Because you simply can’t schedule each day and week like you’re going to be 100% productive and focused for 8+ hours per day. No one’s ever that dialed in for that long. Yet that’s exactly how most people plan. Instead, you need to tackle the hard stuff when you can mentally handle it… …And match your tasks & projects with your energy and lifestyle. You need to understand the magic of creating “whitespace” on your calendar — not only so you can recharge… But also so you can make time for the BIG THINKING required to build a business that revolves around your life… and NOT the other way around. ^^ When our clients get these two things ironed out… Their feelings of overwhelm and 60+ hour work weeks almost always disappear. Of course, there’s a simple system they follow to ensure that happens… And while it would take me thousands of words and probably a full day to type it all out… It takes only minutes for me to show it to you. So next week I’ll be sharing a very special “5-Day Challenge” that’s specially designed to: - Get you crystal clear on the most productive and profitable ways you should be spending your time (and what to STOP doing immediately) - Install a proven goal-setting blueprint that “reverse engineers” the exact steps needed to make even your wildest, craziest goals a reality - Optimize your calendar to help you “bend time” and slash 10-20 hours off your work week - And everything else you need to smash through that invisible ceiling to new levels of profits… While ENDING the sense of being “pinned down” by your own business The best part is… We’ve designed this challenge to work for you regardless of whether you’re just getting started with your business — or you’ve been at it for 10, 15, 20 years. It’s a deceptively simple, yet powerful framework… Because you can literally learn and implement it all in just a few minutes per day over the course of 5 days… Yet it can shave 1-3 FULL work days off your week. So if you feel like you’re “too busy to grow your business” (or even just get organized)... This will be perfect for you. I’ll give you the full rundown next week… And show you exactly how it all works. Until then, have a great weekend! Success Loves Speed, Craig |
