I work hard but am I working smart, that is the question. I definitely am hustling but I end my days exhausted and questioning if I really was productive with my use of time and effort. Honestly, sometimes I still do feel like that hamster in the turning wheel -- running at full speed but not actually getting anywhere.
I have my list of weekly goals, my daily goals too of what I want to do, but every day there are ones that don't get checked off.
Are my goals too big?! I don't know.
My biggest flaw right now, with regards to building my business, is that I'm very impatient and I see it on the daily. I catch myself. I find myself answering business phone calls and interrupting the conversation to ask them "and what's the point of this call?" or "sorry, why are you calling?" That's pretty bad, I know, but my attention span on phone call is about that of a gold fish -- 2 seconds.
Sometimes I feel like I'm still working at the speed of Korea but everyone one else is working at Filipino time, so regardless of how fast or how hard I work, I have to continually wait till the catch up. If I have to wait, I lose interest and am already on the next thing, or busy finding a replacement. If you're late for a business meeting with me, then you're not doing business with me, I'm out.
I need to be more patient and I need to reevaluate how I'm working -- I need to work smarter.
Any suggestions?
