Show Notes
“Ninety nine percent of the time it’s not urgent and to create a culture where you are constantly plugged in and expected to be always-on is to create a culture of burnout.” –Arianna Huffington
If we follow the entrepreneurial hype then we will be all about the grind. But is this really healthy? Can we scale without the grind and avoid burnout? Do we have to neglect our need for self-care to move our businesses forward? Nicole is all for scale without the almost inevitable ‘pop-down/pop-dung’ (this is a Jamaican term for being burnout).
What’s your style for change?
Here is a snippet of what she shared on this episode of the podcast:
“Figure out your style for changing things you are going to have to change what you’re doing if you want a bigger business, right? Because it’s not just going to happen on its own. But find out what your style is for changing things, do you adapt to change quickly? Or do you process it more slowly and and just allow yourself to work out the change that way. So just for example, for me, I process change more slowly. So I cannot go from zero to 100% doing something different overnight. I have to gradually increase it over time. So maybe starting out 20% then 30%, then 50% right then 75%. So as you’re making these changes as you’re starting to batch don’t feel like you need to batch everything overnight. Just start with a couple of tasks. Start with one task batching it thoroughly. Start to see how it feels and start to develop the habit.”

Hot Point: Figure out your style for changing things. You are going to have to change things if you want a bigger business, it won’t happen on its own.
