START

• You are probably listening to this at the beginning of 2023
• To be honest - it doesn't matter as what I will share with you today applies to the start of any year 
• You have a break and feel refreshed 
• The first day you clear your emails and easy tasks 
• Then the oh hell moment hits you 
• You ask yourself - do you do all of the work 
• You think to yourself - you must be crazy 
• No wonder you felt so burnt out at the start of the year 
• Well, the good news is - it doesn't have to be that way 
• You have the power to change it

Before I continue, I would like to talk about the scaling blueprint for Cloud Consultants.

• Back to how you simplify your business - because, lets face it, you only have yourself to blame if it isn't 
• My father-in-law could build anything. 
• One of his masterpieces was a fiberglass camper/caravan. 
• It had to meet a specific weight limit for his Toyota Rav 4. 
• When he went touring, he put a green sticker on everything he used. 
• When he got back, he would remove everything without a sticker. 
• Yes, it helped with weight and fuel efficiency; however, it also removed clutter. 
• Simple and effective. 
• I apply his logic when I return from my summer break (Dec/Jan in Australia)
• Throughout the previous year, I have accumulated actions in my business. 
• If I don't use them in January, I delete them. 
• It simplifies my business and gives me space to add more during the year. 
• Some examples 
• I was writing a separate newsletter and Linkedin posts. Now write once and repurpose 
• I was sending individual messages for people who downloaded my blueprint - now one video sent by the team 
• I was typing replies to emails - now I record a video 
• I was creating extensive show notes for my interview podcast - now I provide an unedited transcript  

What about you? 

What can you start with less this year?
