Ep 168: Why Productivity is a Waste of Time

from Simple Online Business: Business Strategy for Moms · host Samantha Siffring

What is the number #1 time waster I see in the world of online business? Productivity. Since the Industrial Revolution, our society has insisted that we must work long and hard to be valuable as humans. It is deeply ingrained in all of us that our worth in this world is tied to how much we produce. So, we overstuff our calendars, because deep down we believe that staying busy makes us valuable as humans. But checking off more tasks on your to do list does NOT make you more valuable, and it does NOT actually create money. It really just takes the focus away from what actually creates results in your business. On today’s episode of the Online Business Building Mamas podcast, I’m explaining why the focus on productivity is so harmful, where it comes from, and what you should really be focused on in your business to use your limited business building time well.  You’ll learn: Why productivity is actually THE top time waster in business Why our society glorifies working super hard - and why it doesn’t make sense The 2 most effective ways to get the results you want in your business Why you have the right amount of time RIGHT NOW to grow your business (yes, even as a mom!)
