Welcome back to another episode of the Five Minute Morning! Today, we’re diving into a topic that resonates with many business owners the act of staying Busy.

We go over 4 main concepts in this episode.

The Busy Trap: In a world where hustle culture is glorified, it’s easy to confuse activity with productivity. But are you truly making progress, or just spinning your wheels?

Destination Addiction: The belief that happiness and fulfillment are always just out of reach.

Sniper Strategies vs. Machine Gun Tactics: In my book, The 9% Edge, I discuss the difference between being a sniper and a machine gun.

The Costs of Busyness: Reflect on how your daily activities align with your long-term goals and consider if they truly contribute to your growth.

As you enjoy your weekend, take a moment to step back and reflect on what truly matters.
