Own The Exit

The Hidden Cost of Not Focusing on Output


Listen Later

In this episode of Own the Exit, host Caleb Edwards dives into the crucial distinction between action and output. Many entrepreneurs equate busyness with productivity, but as Caleb explains, it’s not the hours you put in, but the high-value work that propels your business forward.


Drawing on lessons from fatherhood and personal experience, Caleb shares hard-earned insights, such as why "getting over yourself" and delegating tasks is essential for growth. He also emphasizes the importance of focusing on your unique abilities, filtering work based on impact, and blocking time for high-impact tasks.


The episode is packed with practical tips for fostering a culture of output within your team. Caleb highlights tools for eliminating distractions and the power of communicating desired outcomes rather than simply assigning tasks.


Tune in to learn how to shift from being constantly busy to truly effective, speeding up your journey to business success.
