Elon Musk’s recent quote that “nobody ever changed the world working 40 hrs” a week has certainly generated a lot of comment about whether it’s the quality or quantity of time that matters as an Entrepreneur.
ActionCOACH’s experience consistently shows that Business Owners struggle to avoid working very long hours. If you are passionate about what you do, it’s easy to lose track of time but are you using your time wisely? Ask yourself these questions –
- How can you use your time adding most value to the business?
- What non-urgent and non-important business activities can you/should you delegate?
- What higher-value activities could you be doing instead of lower-value activities?
Track your use of time over a couple of weeks and see what productive changes you can make.
