The Perfectionism Project

Ep 34: Life Update June 2018


Listen Later

In June I decided to take a step back from everything I’ve been doing in my business and figure out where I should be spending my time. To do it, I asked myself a question that came from The Four-Hour Work Week by Tim Ferriss - “What are the 20% of activities that are yielding 80% of my results?”.

After having a good look at everything I was doing, I realised that a few months ago I decided to make my content creation process more time intensive. And while I do love spending time making content, I didn’t make this decision for the right reason - although I didn’t know it at the time.

I was self-sabotaging.

By keeping myself busy with the easy stuff, I didn’t have enough time to do the challenging stuff. The put myself out there stuff. The risk rejection stuff. The grow my business stuff. And I’ve realized that if I want to achieve my impossible goal, I need to make more room in my calendar for the activities that will lead to that.

Since I get the most love from you guys about my podcast and my Instagram account, that’s where I’ll be spending most of my time. At least for the next few months while I test out a new way of doing things! But the good news is that I’ve decided to do more podcast episodes. And, because I’m no longer doing my daily vlog, I thought it’d be fun to give you guys a monthly update in podcast form. I hope you enjoy it!
