👓Work Smarter, 💪Not Harder

Time is your greatest asset as a freelancer, but it’s also your biggest challenge.

Trust me, I get it.

Managing multiple clients, deadlines, and personal time can feel overwhelming.

These tips will help you take control:

  1. Plan Your Day in Blocks: Break your workday into focused time blocks for specific tasks.

    Use apps with a simple timer to stay on track.
    Ever tried a Pomodoro timer? 
    We use this concept every day!

  2. Prioritize High-Impact Tasks: Focus on tasks that drive results. Use the Eisenhower Matrix to decide what’s urgent vs. what can wait.
    This is really helpful when you have a large list of items and you’re not sure where to get going first!

  3. Embrace Tools for Automation: Save time with tools like Trello for project management or Calendly for scheduling.
    Trello runs our entire business!

    Let tech work for you.

  4. Set Boundaries: Create a clear start and stop time for work.

    Communicate availability to clients so you don’t burn out.

    You can’t expect to be ‘ON’ 24/7.

    It just won’t work.

  5. Review and Adjust: Spend 10 minutes at the end of the day reviewing what went well and planning tomorrow.

    Small tweaks make a big difference over time.
