Prioritising time to invest in being a better entrepreneur will take a backseat when you’re caught up in the hustle and bustle of running your business. However, taking regular free days is crucial for your overall wellbeing and the success of your business.
We understand the hustle and grind of running a business, but trust us when we say that taking time off is not just a luxury—it’s an essential ingredient for a healthy, sustainable entrepreneurial journey.
Let us introduce you to the power of “Free Days“.
Guilt free time off that isn’t a reward, instead it’s a necessary requirement for you to achieve optimum creativity and productivity. A tool as essential as your accountant!
Finding the Right Balance
Consider this perspective: Would you try to chop a tree with a blunt axe? Why then do we try to run our business with a tired mind? How can you expect to unleash your creativity when your brain is overworked and lacking sharpness?
Free Days are 24-hour periods where you completely detach yourself from work and do something just for you. This sharpens your mind, so you return from your time off with a fresh perspective, renewed energy, and quite possibly, a game-changing breakthrough.
To achieve more, you must work less.
Or rephrased, slow down to speed up.
How to Make Your Free Days Happen
- Decide on an activity or destination for your free day.
- Schedule your day to happen this quarter.
- Get it into your calendar and protect it. Think of this time as untouchable.
- Now make a list and start taking the necessary steps to have business handled while you’re away.
- Delegate, outsource, find a major new capability—whatever it takes.
