Let’s be honest. Entrepreneurship is difficult. While it initially seems like a clear path to freedom — and it can be — it’s also a recipe for long hours and unfulfilling busy work.

It happens among many entrepreneurs. You feel so good about stepping out on your own that you end up hustling 24/7. Worse, our society encourages this mindset.

So, you fill their days with low-impact tasks and meetings. This offers a sense of accomplishment, but it’s also a way to procrastinate.

And the real reason we procrastinate? Usually, it’s fear. We perceive a loss of control in our endeavors, so we stick to what we know. Sadly, that usually means reproducing the same hustle-and-grind dynamic we had in our corporate job.

Add in some limiting beliefs about your competency and purpose, and you end up spinning your wheels.

Clearly, having a great business idea isn’t enough. You must un-learn the mindset that being busy immediately leads to progress. Moreover, you deserve to feel confident and coherent as you pursue your goals.

Here’s how you can make that happen.

Re-think Your Time
