Follow Dave on LinkedIn

Entrepreneurs really know how to go the extra mile at work, putting in extra hours every chance they get. But this isn’t a sprint—it’s a marathon. You want to save your energy so you can find success in the long haul.

Running on “E” stops now with my super swift guide to determine the right number of hours for you. And you don’t even have to carbo-load!

Transcription:

Many entrepreneurs pride themselves on their ability to work as long as it takes to get the job done. This, however, leads to burnout. It actually hurts productivity in the long run.

One business owner I coach suggested a metaphor for this. She called it the finish line and I love it.

The finish line means that you define the start and the stop time of each day. Now wherever you have been working to this point, I want you to take some small step in defining that line. For instance, perhaps you’ll start your day at eight and end your day at seven, if you’ve been working till seven-thirty.

So, what I’d like you to do in the comments section below is share what you believe your finish line will be: your start time and your stop time each day.

Also, if you have any question that you’d like me to answer in a future video, ask that below as well.

Thanks for watching. Now go win the race.
