All of these can work for you with very little input, once set up and optimised.  It’s never too early to start using leverage. Time: You can leverage your time more efficiently by setting a daily routine for yourself and listing out what tasks you want to get done by the end of the day and then set actions to complete those tasks. Aim to stay accountable for your time and get the best use out of it.   People: Ask yourself who can I get to do this? Build a team of experts around you that will charge less than you do for teaching. Build up a network of contacts that you can leverage to get all of your tasks done so that you can remain focused on what you’re best at, teaching.   Systems: Defined as a streamlined way of completing a task so that you can continue to grow your business in a reputable manner. Systems will make you fast and help you check the boxes off your daily routine and improve your teaching. Set up good and consistent systems for your business with a manual so that you can then farm out managing the systems for even more leverage.   Knowledge: Who knows what you want to know? Use other peoples knowledge as well as your own to get what you want. Seek out a mentor, teach or coach to help minimise your competence to excellence by leaning on others inspired thinking. BEST MOMENTS   “Decide to do what only you can and farm out everything else and only focus on the vital few things that you love to do.” “50% of something is better than 100% of nothing” “Figure out what it is that only you can do, what you’re unique at doing” “Farm out everything that you don’t what to do” “The first time you set up your systems will be the worst time you set up your systems” “What devices can you use to make you better at what you do”   VALUABLE RESOURCES Listen to The Tutor Podcast on the Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-tutor-podcast/id1369191372)!
