Ep 640. Give it a shot

Implement time blocking in your calendar, allocating specific slots for deep work (1-2 hours, 2-3 times a week), recurring meetings, and even 'fire' management (30 min-1 hour daily) to avoid burnout and increase productivity.

Recognize your most and least productive times of the day; schedule high-focus, creative tasks for your peak hours and administrative or less demanding tasks for lower-energy periods (e.g., field visits in the afternoon).

Utilize tools like LMN (golmn.com) to accurately calculate pricing and profit margins, ensuring you're charging what you need to and bidding with confidence.

Engage with AI technologies (like Leanscaper AI) early to automate workflows and free up mental energy for higher-value tasks, as those who don't adapt risk falling behind in the evolving industry.

Prioritize personal and family time as a status symbol, consciously scheduling it and protecting it, rather than solely focusing on work hours, to prevent burnout and maintain well-being.

Leverage industry communities and events (like Leanscaper or 'Women in the Green Industry' events) for networking, learning, and support, as these connections can provide invaluable insights and opportunities for business growth.
