Working For Yourself
When Freelancers Say Theyāll Work On Their Side Hustle After Client Stuff
Ever heard the concept of āpay yourself first?ā
This advice usually applies to moneyā¦
But it can (and should) also apply to your time.
If youāre working on a side hustle, donāt leave it till the end of your dayā¦
Because youāll often be too tired or stressed out to put in quality time on it.
Instead, spend the first hour of your day working for yourself.
Whether thatāsā¦
ā Growing your audience on social media
ā Building a digital product
ā Or learning new skills
Not only will that investment compound over timeā¦
But putting yourself first is a subconscious signal that will give you a greater feeling of control over your business and your life.
Tool of the Week
Stop Taking Notes On Client Calls and Do This Instead
Forget Jasper, QuillBot, or ChatGPTā¦
One of the most effective AI tools weāve come across is a meeting assistant called Fireflies.
Not only does it record a video of your meetingā¦
It also creates a highly-accurate searchable written transcriptā¦
Plus it generates a concise meeting summary so anyone who wasnāt on the call can quickly get up to speed on topics discussed and takeaways.
Itās been a huge time-saver for us, and our clients love it too.
