Alright, its time to listen up! The #1 struggle I hear from fellow momprenuers is the struggle to find the time.  And I get it, as mommas, there is so much on our plates and there are littles that need constant attention, so how do we find the time to fit it all in?  But let's take an honest look at where we are actually spending our time. 

We need to talk about the biggest time-wasting activities that are holding us back from achieving our goals. 

Social Media Scrolling

Let's start with social media. Now, we all know that social media is a powerful tool for building our businesses, but it can also be a MAJOR distraction. So, it's time to set specific times during the day to check and respond to social media, and limit the amount of time you spend on each platform. Got it?

Constantly Checking Emails

Next up, emails. We need to stop constantly checking and responding to emails throughout the day. Instead, set aside specific times to check and respond, and prioritize based on urgency and importance. And hey, don't be afraid to use email management tools to automatically sort and prioritize your inbox.

Inefficient Prospecting

Now, let's talk about prospecting. We need to focus on high-quality leads and use proven techniques such as referrals, networking, and social media outreach. And, most importantly, evaluate and adjust your strategies based on results.

Multitasking

Trying to juggle multiple tasks at once can be counterproductive and lead to decreased productivity. It's better to focus on one task at a time and complete it before moving on to the next one. Consider learning to use time-blocking techniques to allocate specific blocks of time for specific tasks.

Poor Planning

Without proper planning and organization, network marketers can waste time on unimportant tasks or miss important deadlines. It's important to prioritize tasks, create a schedule, and set achievable goals to stay on track. Use tools such as calendars, to-do lists, and project management software to stay organized and track progress.

Unproductive Meetings

And last but not least, meetings. We all know that unproductive meetings can be a total waste of time. So, make sure every meeting has a clear agenda and purpose, and that everyone is prepared and engaged. And hey, consider scheduling shorter meetings or using virtual platforms to increase efficiency and minimize distractions.

Now, it's time to take action! By stopping these common time-wasting activities, we can improve our productivity and achieve our goals more effectively. So, let's do this, people!
