Do you have a North Star?
Every day when you begin working on your box you must ask yourself. What can I do today to get 10 sales? Is the work I’m doing going to directly lead to growth in my box?
That must be your North Star.
Often we can turn up for work and get busy with all the tasks, then as we work we realize other tasks that have to be done. So we jot them down for tomorrow or if we’re lucky we can outsource some of them.
Tasks, tasks, tasks
The problem is when you get caught up in the nitty gritty, and you look up after a few days, weeks or months and realize ‘I haven’t actually grown my business one bit.’
We’ve gotten better at this over the years so don’t feel bad if this is you, but try to prioritize your day with tasks that actually move the needle.
When you’re planning your day today or tomorrow….
Look at your to-do list and say out loud “do these tasks get me more subscribers?”
If not, scrap them and do higher value work.
