“While this is obvious in retrospect, a great way to free up your time to work on something new is to give something up. Instead of optimizing every second of your day (which is do-able, but very difficult to maintain), I believe the better option is to make a sacrifice.” — Randell Degges
We are big believers in focusing on your core competencies and outsourcing everything else. Do what you do best and let vetted suppliers do the rest; let them do what they do best. Everyone doing their best…doesn’t that sound like all kinds of productive?
In order to do this you need to know what it is you do best and you need to spend the time discovering and partnering with the ultimate suppliers. Find out what is your core offering and strip out the rest. We agree with Randell and believe that by “sacrificing” or de-cluttering, as we like to call it, you not only free up time but also mind space. Creativity loves this space – just saying!
