I know how TEMPTING it is to make a long list of t I know how TEMPTING it is to make a long list of to-dos and goals at the start of a new month, but it's actually the WORST thing you can do 😱 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I tell my coaching clients this all. the. time: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📣 Focus on LESS to accomplish MORE!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When you're trying to do ALL the things, flitting from one task to the next, never sitting down to focus (or finish) ONE thing, you wind up accomplishing next to nothing. 😔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's so much easier to focus on one task, one project, one goal at a time -- so you see it through to completion!! 💯 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🤓 That's why I recommend setting quarterly goals that you break down into monthly projects -- one for each!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For example: My Q2 goal is a new website experience including new freebies and funnels!! 🤩 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Then, I break that goal down into monthly projects: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ☔️ April: Create/Design Freebies 🌷 May: Write + Set Up Funnels ☀️ June: Website Redesign ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So much more doable and accomplishable!! And the epitome of working smarter, not harder 🙌🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👉🏻 Tell me: How can you do less with more focus this month/quarter?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ P.S. Do you want to hear more about my goals >> projects >> tasks breakdown and what I'm working on behind-the-scenes right now?! 🤗 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #womenwhodo #womenhustle #femalentrepreneur #womenwhodostuff #womenwhodobusiness #creativebiz #dreamersanddoers #mindfullboss #imperfectboss #womenwinning #hersuccess #solopreneurship #creativeentrepreneur #solopreneursociety #solopreneurcoach #solopreneursuccess #workforyourself #businessmoves #makingbusinessmoves #smartbusinessmoves #smartbusiness #gottastayfocused #ceoofmylife #womaninbusiness #thebossbabesociete #createcultivate #risingtidesociety #smallbiztips #smallbusinesstips #smallbusinessgrowth

It took me ONE WHOLE YEAR to put together my first It took me ONE WHOLE YEAR to put together my first two digital products: Fresh Start Systems and Running on Routines. 🙈 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And even though a year can sometimes go by in the blink of an eye, that year FELT like an eternity. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’d taken a few courses on creating courses and digital products by that point, but I STILL felt like I’d been dropped into the deep end of a VERY unfamiliar pool 😵‍💫 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I had no real plan, map, system, or even template to follow. I flailed around a lot, exerted A LOT of energy, and constantly felt like I was in over my head 😫 I almost gave up on creating both products multiple times. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ After they launched, the initial response was great, but then it waned, and I had NO IDEA what to do to get these products to sell aside from me talking about them ad nauseam on social media. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I had heard about automatic/evergreen sales funnels, but the set up and tech sounded SUPER complicated and scary 🤯, so I stayed away. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ‼️ It took 2 YEARS to see any significant income from Fresh Start Systems and Running on Routines. And by that point, even though I was teeming with new ideas, I felt like digital products weren’t for me and that creating passive income was somebody else’s pipe dream (i.e. not for me) 😔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I was feeling pretty crestfallen about digital products, my business, EVERYTHING when @jeremyandmegan announced a new program called Revenue Ripple. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👉🏻 Over on the blog, I’m diving DEEP into what Revenue Ripple is, what makes it different, what I did to get the most out of the course + challenge + coaching experience, and how it CHANGED my business!! 🤩 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m also pulling back the curtain and sharing what it REALLY looked like creating Asana Assistant (the product that came out of my Revenue Ripple experience)!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Check it out on the blog!! Link is ready and waiting for you in my profile!! 🤓

That’s no way to live life, that’s no way to do business. You can’t set yourself up to fail before you’ve even begun.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✔️ “So many people focus on time management, and I wish that wasn’t as big of a thing as it is. Because it’s not just about time management, it’s also about energy management and self-management.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✔️ “Even if things don’t go according to plan, you can still have the same goal, you just have to change how you get to that goal. You have to change the path. You have to change the plan, and like they say, even if plan A doesn’t work, there’s 25 other letters in the alphabet.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'll put the links to watch or listen to the interview in my Stories!! 🤩 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #solopreneurlife #smallbusinesslife #smallbusinessownerlife #selfemployedlife #growingmybusiness #entrepreneurthing #femalebusinessowner #ceomindset #femaleentrepreneurassociation #womenwithaplan #savvybusinessowners #leadersinheels #freedombasedbusiness #createabusinessyoulove #femalecreator #femalefounders #businesswithpurpose #smallbusinessbigdreams #womenownedbusiness #smallbusinesstips #smallbizsquad #shedesignedalifesheloved #hustleandheart #thesixfigurechick #theimperfectboss #womenwhofreelance #buildingbossladies #bossbabegoals #dreamersanddoers #mombosslife
