what my day REALLY looks like running this business, living my life, and enjoying it all while Iâm at it âSuccessful entrepreneur who wakes up at 4am and works until 10pm shares her daily routine.â NOT how I would describe my daily routine. In fact, almost the exact opposite. But there was a time when I devoured any article sharing the scheduling âsecretsâ of some entrepreneur or CEOâ¦and they all read something like that. But hereâs the problem⦠They give you a false sense of how productive you âhaveâ to be. Me? I fully subscribe to the principle that we only have four hours of deep work available to us a day. If weâre lucky. So my current âdaily routineâ usually looks something like this⦠6amWake up and walk Falco 7amDrink coffee, check email, and do what I want for three hoursâsometimes thatâs reading or journaling, sometimes thatâs writing an email, other times itâs catching up on new episodes of my current TV binge. Many other times, itâs napping. 10amWrite my email of the day (if I havenât already) and check in on private clients 11amTake Falco out, eat, and get ready for the day Noon to 3pmWhen Iâm most likely to actually do âworkâ 3pm to 7pmTake Falco out. After that, Iâm equally likely to be: Napping, Chilling, Working out, or Eating 7pm to whenever I go to sleepWatch TV with Stephen, maybe answer some emails. Iâm a night owl so if I get in flow, this is when Iâll do some of my best thinking/work. Nothing like those perfectly productive schedules youâll see on Business Insider or wherever. But to be clear⦠I get a lot done. If I were to share my âdaily routine,â my article title would read something like⦠The Daily Routine of a Successful Entrepreneur and Investor who made her first million before 27, owns three businesses, and sits on Nassau Ventureâs investment committee. Not too shabby, huh. Shared tongue in cheek to make a pointâcontrary to what Stephen likes to joke about because he mostly only sees me watching TV, Iâm not some bum sitting on the couch all day getting nothing done. But more seriously, thereâs a reason Iâm able to get so much done: (Which, important distinction: is a completely different thing from being able to do so much.) I know how to manage business. An infinitely more effective skill than just knowing how to manage time. Thatâs why in my DONE training series, we go way beyond âproductivityâ to address the much more impactful things that allow you to get a lot more done while âdoingâ less. Like.. >> Whatâs the best use of your time if you only have 30 minutes to work on your business? >> A powerful technique thatâll help you get what you need doneâno matter how busy you are, how little time you have, how âimperfectâ your working conditions are, or how much you donât feel like workingâ¦so that youâre able to build a business that works for YOU instead of the other way around >> How to finish anything you want, including time-consuming content creation, in whatever amount of time you wantâor have. (This is how I was able to go from spending hours on each task to knowing with confidence I could get anything done in 30 minutes or less. This has nothing to do with the thing itself or getting faster at it) >> How to grow your business every day no matter how little time you have or how busy you are DONE is about shifting the conversation away from trying to be superhumanly productive and disciplined. And instead, shifting the focus TO the way you work in and think about your business.
