Do you always think everything is worth doing now and you are the only one who can do everything, and there is always next time? Are you experiencing attention residue and decision fatigue without you knowing it? Kris Ward is the leading authority in leveraging your time and scaling your business. She is the founder of the Win the Hour, Win the Day philosophy. In this episode, Kris shares how we see ourselves as the solution to all the problems, putting off all ideas for improvement to a later time. Also, she talks about someone who already built quite a business, known in the industry but still working extended hours and juggling so many things, including admin work. And when one does find someone to help out, tasks are not defined, making everything unclear and all over the place. And for things to ease up, she suggests getting things executed and not letting it remain an idea. Check out these episode highlights: 01:19 - Kris' ideal client: I work ideally with entrepreneurs in a service-based business, and they're at least five years in, and they're doing amazing. They look good on paper; maybe they have a book, a podcast, whatever. Or perhaps they're just known in their industry, but they're working more hours than they expected to be doing by this point. 02:19 - Problem she helps solve: The problem we solve is getting ideas to execution. 03:12 - Symptoms of the problem: They misdiagnose that I get a lot done. I'm the go-to person for most people in my life. 04:11 - Mistakes clients make before seeing Kris: Spending too much on growing a team. And then also talk a lot about our super toolkit, which is not, like, SOP standard operating procedures. 05:17 - Kris' Valuable Free Action: It's really about managing your energy. I would tell you; science has shown that the first hour is where you should put your work where it requires the most attention or creativity. 06:18 - Kris' Valuable Free Resource: Get your FREE eBook here: freegiftfromkris.com 06:47 - Q: What are some of the biggest mistakes people make in hiring a VA?
