When to Hire Out: The Eisenhower Matrix

The Eisenhower Matrix groups tasks into 4 categories:

Not urgent and not important
Urgent, not important
Not urgent, important
Urgent and important

Urgency deals with a close due date. These tend to be someone else’s priority (bills, taxes, work tasks, household chores).

Important tasks are important to you.

Tasks can overlap in terms of urgency and importance, but often important non-urgent tasks get ignored because you have to motivate yourself to do them.

You need to maximize efficiency on urgent and important tasks.

Stop doing non-urgent and non-important tasks.

Now we come to urgent but non-important tasks.

When to Hire Out: Urgent, Non-Important Tasks

These tasks have to get done, but tend to be relatively unskilled. When they are skilled, someone else can typically do them for you.

Initially, as a business owner and young person, you have to perform these tasks. At some point, though, you have to be able to spend time working on the business, not in it, and you gain that time by automating and delegating these tasks.

One option is to hire tasks out. Matt sometimes uses Upwork or Fiverr for tasks like artistic renderings. Not only can Matt as the CEO and founder not perform these tasks well, but even the marketing and design team within Barbell Logic needs to be focused on more important work. Their time is worth more than these relatively quick tasks.

The App is build for efficiency, to maximize not only quality of life but enable you to study your craft and acquire more clients. Work on your business, not in your business.

#12: Time is Your Most Precious Resource 49:37

10 weeks ago49:37

Time is your most precious resource. You can make more money and you can work harder, but you cannot make more time. We all have 24 hours in a day and we all have a finite amount of days to live (we will die). Make the most of your time, and learn how to leverage effort and money to open up as much time as possible in your life. Time Is Your Most Precious Resource: Can’t Create More You have three resources you can pull from: time, money, energy. You should work hard. This is a must as an entrepreneur. Do the work. If you are young or poor (and often they go together) you will have to spend more time doing things for yourself. As you grow older and more experienced, hopefully you have made more money. You need to buy back your time, using money to free up time. This means paying for others to take care of urgent, non-important tasks, both high skill or low skill. This helps you avoid drowning in urgency. Time is Your Most Precious Resource: MED for Maximum Impact You need to consider the likely impact on the business and likely investment of resources. Rate each on a scale of 1-5. If there are low resource, high impact actions you can take, these are no brainers. Do them. Now. High resource, low impact actions you should avoid. The harder choices are the high resource, high impact or low resource, low impact actions. Where many owners may not think clearly here is with sunken costs. Oftentimes, certain clients suck energy, time, and money out of your business but put little money into the business. Fire these people. Hire more clients like your best clients that take the lowest number of resources. Time is your most precious resource. Leverage it and other resources intelligently for the maximum impact on your business. #BusinessGrowth #CoachingTips #ClientSuccess PS - Coach Smarter, Earn More: https://bit.ly/3X4ixOX Matt's Links Website: https://ryanmattreynolds.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reynoldsstrong/?hl=en Chris's Links: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrismreynolds/ See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .…

When Work is Your Passion, Work Feels Like Play You spend a lot of life at work. If you’re an entrepreneur, unless you plan to fail, you will spend more than most people at it. Don’t do something you hate. Don’t blindly do something you think you love. As you practice something, you tend to love it over time. You will not know unless you expose yourself to different things and pursue them with some real effort. What it Takes to Succeed: Be An Outlier Most businesses fail. If you do what everyone else is doing, you will get the same results. Working hard and intelligently at something over time will set you apart. Remember you’re not a technician as an owner. You need to understand your field, read, expose yourself to new ideas, think about where your business needs to go, and call up customers and prospects and learn about their pain points. When work is your passion, work feels like play. How to Make Work Fun Learn to love what you do. Engage deeply with problems and the pain points. See these as the primary things you were put on earth to solve. Become the world’s leading expert in something. Truly master something - become excellent in this thing. Pair things you already love with this, for example coffee, walking, traveling, etc. We often think work is worse than it is. It is not pleasurable every moment. But lean into the challenges and truly embrace the pursuit. When work is your passion, work feels like play.

#10: Why Core Values Matter: Decision-Making, Growth, & Company Culture 58:12

12 weeks ago58:12

58:12

Core values serve as guiding principles that help individuals and organizations make decisions aligned with their highest ideals. They are incredibly important, and should not be posted on the wall and forgotten, but known by all and followed by all. Core values must be reflected in the company culture, hiring process, and leadership. Why Core Values Matter: Core values define the highest ideals for yourself to act. They serve as guidelines for goals, actions, and other decisions. These will drive actions. They will provide a standard to guide hard decisions. Core values should align with who you are and what you believe in. Don’t create core values that you can’t live up to. These need to be reflected in your company culture. They cannot be posted on the wall but known by no one. You cannot ignore them. If someone is exposed to your business, will they say that your core values are reflected in their interaction with your company. How to Identify Your Core Values Even if you do not know your core values, you have them. Identify attributes that you find attractive or motivational (or, find features that bother you). You might also think about your legacy and how you want to be seen. If you have someone who can speak honestly to you, you could see how they see you now. You might think about things you regularly do or need to do and post them up quickly on a wall. Start to group these activities. You can begin to see values that you follow. Once identified, you should prioritize them. Once you have your core values identified and prioritized, you can begin to develop your GAMEplan, which will move you from where you or your company are now to where you want to go.
