🚨Unpopular opinion: The Hustle & grind mentality is overrated for entrepreneurs.
Often, our culture and society glorify overworking and deprioritizing sleep.
Being able to make it on 4 or 5 hours of sleep is in many circles considered a badge of honor, or just what success people do.
Team no sleep? No thanks!!!!
Not only does lack of sleep impact your quality of work and life, but it also negatively impacts your HEALTH! Your endocrine system and adrenals will become totally shot if you go too long without proper sleep!
It's like a ripple effect of awful consequences, for what?
Many SUPER successful entrepreneurs are the antithesis of this idea.
They are busy, yes. But they are also thriving when it comes to exercising, sleeping, building brands, and building real, lasting connections with their loved ones and new people on a regular basis.
And they still have time to relax, observe, maybe hang out on a beach. In some cases, these folks have lived the real 4-hour work week –– except they might work 3-4 hours each week day.
In other cases, they’ve figured out ways to outsource things that do not require their DNA & pay others to do the work for them, freeing up more of their TIME (the most valuable commodity because it's irreplaceable!)
A recent 80-year long Harvard study has revealed that the HAPPIEST people spend money to gain more time.
They outsource, they build processes, they follow routines, and they train others to do the work they know needs to be done –– but that they don’t want to spend the time to do.
Working 80+ hours a week at the expense of sleep or personal relationships isn’t the only way to be successful!
Find something you can do that lets you WORK in the nooks & crannies of your life -- for me, having an ONLINE business that I can work from anywhere is the best decision I have made for our future! I love it!!!!
