How you can get more done in less time whilst running a business with Neill Williams

Today’s episode of the podcast is an interview with Neill Williams. Neill is a Master Certified Life and Productivity Coach who helps too busy high-achieving online entrepreneurs scale back their work weeks to 30 hours or less so they can do what they most want to do, most of the time. We talk all about how we can become more productive and organised, as well as staying accountable so you can work smarter and reach your goals working fewer hours. We also give you some of the mindset tools and practical tools you need to do this!   KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCAST   Time does not = money. You can earn a great amount of money working less hours – it is possible. You have to have the mindset in place first to take the action of systemising or delegating in your business. Don’t take your employee mindset into running your own business – you have to think about everything and hold yourself accountable. We are the CEO of our own businesses – everything is down to us. Let go of the cookie-cutter version of what you think a CEO looks like. To have self-integrity – you have to keep the promises you set yourself. Create an amazing relationship and don’t let yourself down by not doing what you planned to do. When you give yourself less time, you have to be more efficient! Cutting hours is a great way to increase your productivity because it limits you being distracted and procrastinating. Ask yourself – does it make the boat go faster? Is what you are doing pushing you towards your goal? Carve out time for being the ‘employee’ eg Fulfilling/delivering your product/service and being the ‘CEO’ eg Marketing/selling. Schedule thinking time – you are solving a problem for someone. Give your brain things to focus on during this time eg what is my goal for next year? What are my next 3 steps? You don’t have to do ALL the things – you need to have a focus and know where you are going. Scaling back the number of hours we have been conditioned to work gives us the freedom to be flexible and spontaneous.   THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO REMEMBER ABOVE ALL ELSE…   Don’t add complexity when it comes to making money – it only takes one amazing offer or thing done really well and one platform.   HIGHLIGHTS YOU SIMPLY CAN’T MISS   How Neill scaled back her working hours but still hit 6 figures in her business. How you can work less hours whilst earning 6 figures. How to stay accountable when you are running your own business. How to be more productive in your day and get more done in less time.

So I've got lots of updates for you for this week. Lots has been going on. So first update. Have you gone and done the quiz? So the quiz what's your number one business blocker is out and live. If you go to teresaheathwareing.com/quiz so you can uncover where you're getting stuck in your business and reveal the action steps that you need to grow your business. Plus you've received a personalized growth rapport and an action plan. We're going to do a whole episode about this quiz because the whole thing was amazing. The process and the work that's gone into it. Like I totally geeked out at the backend of it. And like, cause basically what happens is I wanted it to be really personalized, you know, and it says it's personalized. And it's really not that personalized when you've done quizzes in the past. So what I've done is when you take the quiz, the page you finish on that gives you the name of where you're stuck is kind of the, the overall, yeah, this is the area you need to focus on. However, The report that I've put together and I'm laughing because it's crazy. I talked, I was having some sessions with active campaign because we were moved over to that or moving over to there. And which, again, I'll talk about properly at some point. And also having conversations with the lovely Kylie who built the quiz and both of them, when I said how many options of the report I needed and wanted, they would just like 'What on earth.' Because I've made it very personal. So basically there are three main questions within the quiz itself that I pull out and put into the report. So your actual answers, I tell you the next thing you need to do in your business. And this is all based off my dream business growth path, which is in the club, which is phenomenal. It's a, we've spent a long time putting it together. It's very, very detailed in the sense of use you pick a section. So it might be social media. It might be content. It might be sales. It might be emails. It might be your community. It might be a team. And basically you work through that. And you go into a section of the growth path and it will say, you know, where are you? And you basically decide, is this the level I'm at? And then if that's the level you're at, it tells you exactly what you need to do to get to the next level. And then at the end of each section of the growth path is a quiz and well, not a quiz, an assessment where basically you mark it and you put in the answers and if you pass, you can then move up into the next level. But basically. It isn't, it sounds like a course. It is so not a course. Like this. And I think I've talked about through the pathway took me almost seven years to do, and I'm not saying it's going to take you seven years. Cause obviously I changed and tweaked and I had to learn along the way, but basically I've taken all the things that I've learned and all the steps that got me, all the things where my business really moved and improved and I've put them into pathway. So good. So the quiz is linked to the pathway, um, and the content comes from the pathway. So the report that you get is so good, I am so very excited. And then at the end of the report, it tells you which level of the club is most appropriate to you, to where you are in your business. Honestly, I've had way too much fun doing this, probably spend way too much time. So that's the first thing the quiz. The next thing is we are doing a free workshop. Now I am going to be very aloof in telling you what the workshop's about because at this point I am still finalizing things. Now it makes me so very unorganized and ordinarily I'm not a very organized. However we have done so much stuff. So what I want you to do is I want you to head along to teresaheathwareing.com/dreambusinessworkshop okay, all one word. I will put a link to it in the show notes. And that is going to tell you what this free workshop is all about, where you get to come and sit with me and work on your business for free for a couple of hours. It's going to be cool. Okay. So that's that? Sorry. It's very aloof. I promise I'll give you more information next week, but it's going to be on the 16th of March. So don't hang around if you're listening to this late, because you want to get booked on while there's still space. Okay. So that's that. And then the third thing is my website went when live. I told you we've been very busy, which is why I'm a little bit disorganized. So the website went live. I love it. I've had such good feedback from it. So we're going to put a link in the show notes, please go and take a look because it's cool. And that was done by the amazing Ben from Shoutable which I will link up to in the show notes, as well as linking to Kylie who did the quiz and active campaign. So all of those links are in there if you wanna go and check out any of that stuff. Um, but do go sign up for the workshop. Do do the quiz and do go take a look at the website. I've given you three actions today. I'm very bossy. Okay. Today we've got an interview with the lovely Neill Williams.
