It is quite common for business owners to come to me feeling burnt out, anxious, and a slave to their own emotions.
Their day-to-day existence is just another day to survive, and they are easily influenced by their emotions because they have been stuck in the same old habits for so long.
Here are 3 habits you NEED to break for a high-performing business:
Procrastination is the thief of time and productivity.?
Constantly putting off important tasks creates a cycle of stress and anxiety.?
Procrastination is a form of resistance or even a lack of clarity.
What are you resisting right now??
What are you lacking clarity in??
To break this habit, start by identifying the root cause of your procrastination.?
Is it fear of failure? Perfectionism? Once you understand why you procrastinate, you can take steps to address it.
Implementing time management techniques like the Pomodoro Technique or time blocking can help you stay focused and make consistent progress on your tasks.
P.S. The fastest way for you to break procrastination is to plan your days the night before.?

2. Multitasking:
Multitasking might seem like a way to get more done, but it hampers productivity and increases the likelihood of mistakes.?
Switching between tasks disrupts your focus and reduces efficiency.?
To break this habit, prioritize single-tasking.?
Focus on one task at a time, complete it, and then move on to the next.?

Use tools like to-do lists and task management apps to keep track of your priorities and ensure you stay on course.
3. Neglecting Self-Care:
Many business owners put their well-being last, thinking they need to sacrifice self-care to achieve success.?
This mindset leads to burnout and diminished performance.?
To break this habit, schedule regular self-care activities just like you would any important meeting.?
Exercise, meditate, get enough sleep, and take breaks throughout the day.?
Remember, a healthy and well-rested mind and body are crucial for sustained productivity and creativity.
Breaking these habits will set you on the path to becoming a high-performing business owner.?
By tackling procrastination, focusing on single-tasking, and prioritizing self-care, you'll not only improve your productivity but also enhance your overall well-being and business success.

7 个月Certainly procrastination breeds multi-tasking and then the fear of failing kicks in so you don't look after yourself, both mind and body. A twisted circle especially when you are endeavouring to grow a business. Love the positive ideas and they are very true.

7 个月Great post Holly as usual! Another habit that needs breaking is the 'solo warrior' mindset. Business owners often try to do everything themselves, leading to burnout and inefficiency. Delegating tasks and trusting your team can free up mental space for strategic thinking and innovation. Ever noticed how much smoother things run when you let go of some control?
