How Do I “Do It All”
If you find yourself saying that you’re “too busy,” “don’t have enough time,” or, “don’t have enough money.” This blog is for you! I get asked often how do I “do it all?” And, “do you work all the time?” And, the answers are I do not do it all. And, I don’t work all the time. But, I do get a lot done strategically and you can too! Here are 3 tips to creating more time, which will make more money and give you a life.

3 Tips to Creating More Time
- Time Block: I’ve talked about this before but it’s important to repeat again. I use a timer for projects. I stop working when the timer goes off. I make sure that I do a little bit on each project each week so that the needle is moving forward. When you wait to do something that has nothing to do with another thing you end up postponing that something until it’s too late. When you put deadlines on your tasks you realize how little time some things take. But, when you give them more time they take more time. I also make sure that before I scroll on IG or any other socials before I “consume” I create. So, I do the things that propel my business forward first. Grab your to-do’s and give time limits on projects. And, use a timer like this one to hold you accountable.
- Delegate: I know you think you can’t afford a VA, assistant, someone to do your grocery shopping or clean your house or studio but I promise you that hiring people to do the things that don’t bring you joy or don’t bring you money is essential to have more time and in your business time is money! I create all my content, write all my words on blogs, social media, YouTube, newsletters and more. But, I don’t edit my videos, schedule my newsletters or clean my house. The 3 hours my housekeeper spends each week between my house and studio costs me a session and a bit. It’s sooo worth giving her that money so that I can free up 1.75 hours where I can be doing work that brings in money. What tasks could you outsource?
- Recognize your complaints, frustrations, and fears. Call them out! What would happen if you got rid of your complaints? What could you get done if you didn’t spend time repeating your frustrations? What could happen if you weren’t in fear of ___? The time we waste on repeated complaints, talking in circles about frustrations or not doing the thing because we are afraid of what could happen is time that could be marketing your business, enjoying your life or doing something that you love. Take stock this week of the time you waste overthinking, talking yourself out of doing something, complaining or blaming. Make a note when you get in your own way and acknowledge when you are procrastinating by scrolling on social or sitting in imposter syndrome and thinking everyone else is doing it better than you. Then, take the next first step and see what happens. Take messy action!
