018 Staying focused: About setting priorities

Productive Introvert Community with Mariella Franker, PhD

10-11-2022 • 21 mins

How do you decide which activities to focus on when you can go in any direction with your business?

As a young entrepreneur, the idea that I can go in any direction I want can be both liberating and overwhelming. It’s very easy to loose focus and to start drifting. You may wake up one day and realize that you’ve been doing less and less of the things that really spark that joy in you. The things that got you excited about running your own business in the first place.

Today, I’ll take you through an exercise that has helped me to decide which activities to focus on and to stay on track in the first years of my business. I call it a business energy assessment. In it, you assess the activities that you're doing on a day-to-day basis and how much energy and joy they bring to you in your work.

What you’ll learn:

✅ What is a business energy assessment and why is it helpful

✅ How to get started if this is the first time you’re doing a business energy assessment

✅ An example of how I crossed off 12 out of 14 (almost) daily activities off my list in a recent assessment
