Simplify with Amanda B

Hey friend, welcome back to another episode of the Attention Audit podcast!

Before we dive into this week’s episode I want to invite you to join me in an upcoming brand NEW training I’ve put together: The 5 Steps to Outsource Your To Do List. This training is for you if:

• You’re a business owner or a solopreneur who is has thought about hiring a virtual assistant in the past
• You need someone to help offload some of your weekly tasks
• You know you need to outsource in order to grow your business (and maybe even get some peace in your life), but you’re not exactly sure where to start

This free training is happening Monday, October 16th at 2PM Central, and I’ll walk you through the 5 simple steps to hire a virtual assistant and start outsourcing your to-do list. Click here to register.

This week, I want to share with you 10 things I’ve learned about outsourcing. 

I’ve had an online business for almost 8 years and 6 of those years I’ve always had a virtual assistant helping me with the daily flow of business, projects, and tasks and one of my VA’s has been with me for all 6 of those years. As a solopreneur, I’ve been able to focus on the things that are most important in my business that have allowed me to grow. 

Come on over to Instagram and share with me the top things you’d like to outsource in your business to take back your time!

Take care my friends.

Welcome back to another episode of the podcast. So excited to have you here. If you’re new here, welcome. I’m so grateful to have you!

My 6-week Attention Audit Accelerator program has officially kicked off. If you did not get in this round but know you want to for the next one, click here to sign up. Doors will be opening again in January 2024. 

This week I want to share with you something that I have started doing this year that has been immensely helpful in my business and life. It is a tool I teach inside Attention Audit Accelerator. 

It is called seasonal values. 

Seasonal values are different from what I would consider your core values. Core values are ones that you are born with. They’ve been innate all your life. 

Seasonal values are intentionally decided values for a certain period of time.

I like to decide values for a year, or wherever you can feel a definite break up in the flow. For example, maybe the seasonal value you hold for the summer months is completely different than the value you hold for the fall and holiday seasons.

In today’s podcast episode, I share with you…

• The benefits of a seasonal value
• How to decide your seasonal value
• What to expect from holding a seasonal value

Come share your Seasonal Values with meon Instagram @attentionaudit.

Until next week!

Welcome back to another episode of the Attention Audit podcast, I am so excited that you are here!

Before we dive into today’s podcast episode I want to remind you that I’m hosting a 5-day challenge starting on Monday, August 28th called Your Most Productive Week. Each day during the challenge, I’ll be delivering training inside our private Facebook group. If you’re a service provider or course creator wanting to create results on repeat, join this challenge. Bonus: it’s completely free!

Also, the doors to my signature 6-week group coaching program will be opening that Thursday, and I’ll be inviting you to work with me for 6 weeks. Click here to learn more and get on the waitlist!

All that said, let’s dive into this week’s episode!

This week I’m talking about things that are all around us and that while sometimes can be a good thing, are oftentimes just big distractions. These my friends, are opportunities. While opportunities can be abundant, they can also distract us from our goal, and where we want to go. As business owners, we need to create a ‘filter’ to help us choose which of the opportunities will help us propel our business forward, which in turn, will help us determine which opportunities will only be a distraction from reaching our goals.

You need to decide what will point you in the direction of your goals. What do you want to achieve? Will this opportunity get you there, or will it take your valuable time away from achieving something that will get you closer to your actual goal? Are you honoring what you’ve decided your priorities are? Is this opportunity going to fuel your focus?

Take a few moments the next time a new opportunity arises and think on that this week, then tag me over on Instagram and share how you filtered through it with me @attentionaudit.

That’s all I have for you this week. Talk to you next week, friend!

Today I want to talk to you about massive action. 

Massive action is about taking action until you get the result you want. It is a commitment to the outcome regardless of the circumstances around it. Counter that with passive action which may seem productive but doesn’t directly contribute to substantial progress. 

Massive action is associated with producing, executing. 

Passive action is associated with consumption. Reading endless articles, attending numerous webinars, or over-analyzing without implementation are typical examples of passive action.
