Friday Drive #015 - Mastering Productivity: The Power of Your Stop Doing List

Sep 22, 2023

Read Time: 90 Seconds

Hey,

If you aim to build a successful, profitable, and sustainable business that brings you joy, then your focus shouldn't be solely on your never-ending to-do list. Instead, it's time to prioritize your Stop Doing list.

So, what do most people do? They wake up to various tasks, messages to answer, and a calendar with calls and appointments.

But why?

The main reason is that they believe they are the only ones who can do it all.

However, I often find that leaders and business owners are involved in tasks that others in their company can and should handle instead.

I invite you to list everything you do daily, weekly, and monthly. Then, ask yourself why you're the one doing each task. Is it because you are the only one capable, or is someone else within your company who can take over?

Or, #2, you're engaging in tasks that shouldn't even be done in the first place.

I am passionate about finding the most effective and efficient ways to get things done. However, it's equally important to question whether certain things should even be done at all.

So, as you jot down the tasks that genuinely need to be accomplished, your next step is to determine who should handle them.

Remember, it's time to prioritize your Stop Doing list and unlock the full potential of your business.

Stay Focused,
Casey Cavell
