In the last weeks you started working smarter by looking for opportunities to delegate and automate processes you normally do yourself in your business.
If you followed the delegation process (WHY, WHAT, HOW, WHO and WHEN) and as a result chose ONE process to delegate… well done! You’re well ahead of the game.
If you followed the automation process (WHY, WHAT x 2, HOW and WHEN) and as a result chose ONE process to automate… give yourself another pat on the back! You are setting yourself up for success.
Bad habits die hard…
Before we go on for the next (and last) part in the Work Smarter, Not harder block of the program, I would like you to notice if you didn’t fall to one of two old patterns, that sabotage many entrepreneurs:
1. OVERachieving
Nothing is wrong with wanting more, doing more, pushing more… but this Working ON Your Business program will get you to work ON 24 different areas in your business.
And we only have one week to work ON each area together.
So… when I ask you to pick up ONE process to delegate, for example… I mean ONE process… not 7, not 17, not 47 processes.
Not that you cannot (or shouldn’t) delegate 7 processes or automate 17 processes. If you can, you probably should… at one point…
But for the sake of you getting the maximum out of the program… ONE process delegated successfully is better than 10 processes planned to be delegated…
2. UNDERachieving
I understand that everyone is in a different place in life and in business… BUT… if I let you into the program, it’s because I am convinced that every single assignment in the program will be valuable for your business.
If I ask you to come up with ideas of what to automate in your business, and you find it hard to come with any idea – then YOUR job is to breakthrough that internal limitation and “push” your brain to come up with 10 ideas…
If you manage to come up easily with 10 ideas… then find the point where it becomes difficult – and push for 5-6 more ideas. If you didn’t feel like your brain was sweating – you probably gave up too early…
Please understand… the assignment itself (for example, automate something) is the least important part of the program. Developing habits that get your brain to work for you, on demand, is a lot more important.
Here’s a PRO tip… whenever you hear the voice in your head telling you “I can’t”, “it doesn’t make sense”, “give me a break”, “it’s impossible”… that’s the time to say to your mind, “thank you for sharing”… and do the assignment AS instructed.
By the way… that goes also for whenever you choose not to celebrate the completion of a week… I don’t have the time and possibility to make this program into a personal development program, but each time I read someone writing “I have nothing to celebrate this week”, I have a strong urge to find that person and put some sense in their brain…
Bad habits die hard.
OK… enough pep talk… time to get you working ON your business…
Work Smarter, Not Harder – Part 4
Remember – your job is to go from where you are now to where you want to be – in the minimum amount of steps. That’s what it means to work smarter.
When you get there – doing business becomes easier, life is more flowing, you get results faster…
Most of us are doing too much. Being busy became a status symbol.
Many of us thinking of ourselves as Mr./Ms. Busy Important.
Here’s the newsflash…
Busy is the NEW Stupid
We all have the same 24 hours a day, same 7 days a week, same 365 days a year… and yet – it seems some people manage to achieve 10 times, 100 times, even 1,000 times more than the rest of us…
What’s their secret?
It’s quite simple, and you already know it… So it’s not going to be a big surprise when I explain you the simple, powerful tool you need to use – that when you use it – you’ll become super productive.
Drum roll… enter the…
Productivity Matrix
This simple, yet very effective tool will help you focus on the tasks, actions and activities that make the biggest difference in your business.
Those activities are divided into 4 categories:
- NEW
Those are tasks, actions or activities you haven’t done before, but adding them to your “to do” list would make a big difference.
This is, of course, different for every person/business/situation – but some examples could be: publishing your FIRST book to build an expert position, adding reminders on your phone so you don’t forget your appointments, getting someone else to do your bookkeeping… - MORE
Those are tasks, actions or activities you’re already doing. They deliver lots of value for you, and all you need is to do MORE of them.
For example, if you’re sending an offer to your mailing list once a year, and it works, start sending 4 times a year. If you’re having one client magnet that works, create another one… - LESS
Those are tasks, actions or activities you’re doing, that cost you time or money or energy but don’t deliver you a lot of value, and you need to do LESS of them.
For example, if posting daily on social media doesn’t deliver daily value (in the form of clients or at least opt-ins or inquiries) you might want to cut it down to a weekly posting. - STOP
Probably the most important category when it comes to being super productive. In this category you want to include these tasks, activities or actions you do that waste your time, energy, money (or all of them). And you should simply STOP doing them.
For example, I just stopped sending any emails to people that are not active, paying clients. You might want to stop wasting time on social media that is not strictly business-growth related…
Let’s start with your MINDSET…
Are you busy?
We like others to think we are busy. We feel guilty if we are not busy. We think not being busy is bad. Because we often confuse being busy with being successful.
Most productive and successful people I’ve ever met always find time that others don’t. And while you may not get much of their time, when you do get it – you get undivided attention. They are fully present and maximize every moment of the interaction. They never multi-task.
But most of us waste our precious time on things we shouldn’t. Which means we have less hours to invest wisely, on things that do matter. That might be improving our professional skills, pursuing a tremendous business opportunity, investing in a hobby, or simply spending more time with the people we love.
Why do you waste time and then use every opportunity to express to others how busy you are? Because as a society we’re glorifying “busy”. We’ve all been tricked into believing that if we are busy we are important. But that’s not true.
Busy isn’t cool. In fact, BUSY IS THE NEW STUPID.
Being busy makes us rush, creates short-sightedness, expands our blind spots, increases mistakes and as a result – we miss opportunities we can’t get back. Busyness creates more “would haves”, “could haves” and “should haves” than anything else in our life – which ultimately leads to regret.
So, next time you find yourself apologizing to someone that you would have liked to meet them, respond to them, or just acknowledge their existence but couldn’t because you’ve been so busy, consider the REAL message(s) you’re sending them:
- My time is more important than yours;
- I’m not very good at prioritizing my time;
- I want you to judge me based on how busy I am, not how productive I am;
- You aren’t a priority, or at least what you want to speak with me about isn’t a priority.
Set your GOAL for this week…
Here’s a great goal for you:
I am going to become SUPER Productive.
How’s that for a 5-day challenge?
Choose the STRATEGY you will use…
If you have never used the Productivity Matrix, or if you use it often for years – use it this week in the most optimal way.
And again, we’re going to use… the Idea Generator
Remember – your brain is an answering machine… so let’s give it a great question each day of the week:
- Day 1 – What NEW to add
Come up with as many tasks, actions or activities you can think of – that you’re not doing today, and adding them could benefit your business in the long run…
(You already should have at least one new delegation and one new automation to start your list… )Write them ALL down in the comment box below.
Then choose the most important 1-2 NEW tasks, actions or activities you’re going to add in the coming week.
Write them down. This is your commitment. - Day 2 – What to do MORE of
Come up with as many tasks, actions or activities you can think of – that you’re already doing in your business, and you should be doing MORE to improve your business in the long run…Write them ALL down in the comment box below.
Then choose the most important 3 tasks, actions or activities you’re going to do more of in the coming month.
Write them down. This is your commitment. - Day 3 – What to do LESS of
Come up with as many tasks, actions or activities you can think of – that you’re doing in your business, and you should do LESS of to benefit your business in the long run…Write them ALL down in the comment box below.
Then choose the most important 3 tasks, actions or activities you’re going to do less of in the coming month.
Write them down. This is your commitment. - Day 4 – What to STOP doing
Come up with as many tasks, actions or activities you can think of – that you’re doing, but you should definitely STOP doing to grow your business in the long run…Write them ALL down in the comment box below.
Then choose the most important ONE task, action or activity you’re going to do STOP doing. Starting now!
Write it down. This is your commitment. - Day 5 – Putting it all together
For the Friday Celebration post a clear, concise plan – of all the 4 categories in your Productivity Matrix…
PLAN your actions in your agenda…
Your next step is to actually plan this process in your agenda.
Plan to invest 10-15 minutes EVERY DAY in the coming 5 days to follow the process above.
Now it’s time to IMPLEMENT…
Take 10 minutes, right now, and…
- Day 1 – come up with at least 10 ideas what NEW to add and choose the 1-2 NEW tasks, actions or activities you’re committing to add in the coming week;
- Day 2 – come up with at least 10 ideas what to do MORE of and choose the 3 tasks, actions or activities you’re going to do MORE of in the coming month;
- Day 3 – come up with at least 10 ideas what to do LESS of and choose the 3 tasks, actions or activities you’re going to do LESS of in the coming month;
- Day 4 – come up with at least 10 ideas what to STOP doing and choose the ONE task, action or activity you’re committing to STOP doing immediately;
- Day 5 – put it all together in one “document”: NEW, MORE, LESS, STOP.
As soon as you have them… write them down in the comment box.
My commitment to you…
- I’m looking forward to read your process and ideas below;
- I will be there for you on Wednesday to support you with any question, challenge or setback you encounter;
- I’m looking forward to celebrate your progress and results on Friday (I’m curious to hear what you’ll come up with).
Live fully, stay awesome,
Nisandeh

Week 4 - Day 4 (caught up after vacation)
STOP doing:
1. Caring about what others might think of it.
2. Thinking that life should be different then what it is.
3. Telling myself life is 'too hard' while I live in the most abundant time in history.
4. Accepting that I feel down, or tired, or not in the mood, instead of raising my energy and improving my state.
5. Putting good aside 'for later' instead of implemtning them fast.
6.
I find it very hard to come up with 10 things I hould stop. There is not much in my life that I realy completely want to stop.
Since Nisandeh answer was "Life is perfect as it is at any moment." to the question what he wished he knew when he was 35, mu commitment is: 2.
105 comments
I now remeber Nisandeh saying that when you have a hrad timing comming up with ideas, then it is realy time to force your brain to think harder.
And not give up.
So....
6. Giving up. (Maybe giving up too soon, cause sometimes giving up is the perfect thing to do.)
7. Try to get approval from people for what I do, or for who I am.
8. Sending memes or funny video's to friends... (no, I should do less, but I don't want to stop, cause sometimes it's just funy.)
8. Trying to "fix" meself as if something is wrong. Instead be greatful for where I am and become even better.
9. Most emailsubscribtions (Use unsubscribe more often)
10. making an animation with a mindset of: "How can I do this with the least amount of effort and time." Instead use the mindset of: "How can I make this the best animation ever!?"
Commitment: 10!
It's so cool to notice that when you push yuor brain, eventualy it will give a great answer that I didn't expect at all.

I love how you think Manny - especially points #1, #2 & #3...
Most entrepreneurs are not even aware of what's not working, and when they become aware, they're often so invested in these activities... that they find it hard to stop ("let me try just one more week...")
Well done!

MINDER DOEN:
1. Abonneren op minder nieuwsbrieven (kost veel energie en als het geen bijdrage is geeft het last)
2. Dingen meerdere keren veranderen om ze te verbeteren (na 1 aanpassing kan het soms nog scherper en beter)
3. Dingen doen waar ik niet echt in geloof
4. Aan meerdere projecten tegelijk werken (het leidt te veel af)
5. Dingen uitstellen die ik niet graag doe
6. Te veel taken op een dag plannen
7. Minder onderbrekingen van mijn werkuren toestaan
8. Ander helpen eerst goed zorgen wat voor mij belangrijk is
9. Vanuit een kleine jongen reageren
10. In mijn kleinheid stappen en belemmerende overtuigingen
TOP:
1. Tijd verspillen aan niet zo winstgevende projecten
2. Te kritisch zijn over mijn prestaties
3. Anderen te veel van mijn tijd laten in beslag nemen
4. Mijn keuzes aan anderen uitleggen
5. Tijd doorbrengen met negatieve mensen
6. Mezelf vergelijken met anderen
7. Vasthouden aan negatieve overtuigingen

Dit geld eigenlijk ook voor dag 4 en 5
Qua vieren was echt wel mijn bezoek aan de beurs in Duitsland. Eurobike
Ik ben terug gekomen met veel ideeen en veel energie.
Ik durfde eerder niet snel naar mensen toe te stappen en heb het nu gedaan en gaf enorme vreugde om het te doen.
Ik wordt steeds zekerder in de wat ik te doen en heb en dat is best groots.
Het bedrijf wat er moet komen gaat al gauw over 600 - 700 man personeel (alleen in Nederland)
In elke provincie op strategische plaats een grote hal waar 30 monteurs in een rij werken met
- stadsfietsen.
- sportfietsen .
- elektrische fietsen
- cargobike/ bakfietsen
In elk team is een coach / leermeester die een eindcontrole doet van de fiets.
Er is een magazijn waar je onderdelen kunt afhalen
Er is een leef en mindstijl coach en personeel kan er gezond eten en sporten en meditatie/yoga. samen fietstochten rijden
Fietsen naar werk wordt gestimuleerd
Er is een volledig beschreven traject hoe alles verloopt. tav structuur en helderheid
Dit moet een meerwaarde zijn waarom men bij ons wil werken.
Er word gewerkt vanuit positieve coaching
Er is beveiliging
Je kunt doorgroeien naar en werkplek op een bus.
Er zijn 15 bussen per hal/ provincie (in afstemming wat de behoefte is in de regio)
De teams / hal managers hebben contact over voortgang en ideeen.
Er zijn sportwedstrijd dagen
Mooiste / volgend stadium is als er in 3 teams ( 3 ploegen diensten ) gewerkt gaat worden (3x8 uur ) zo wordt de hal de hele dag gebruikt.
En er zijn mensen die levier op andere tijden werken.
Fietsen per regio kunnen verzameld worden bijvoorbeeld op locaties van de gamma. waar de fietsen verzameld worden.
Je kunt als klant kiezen voor reparatie binnen 24 uur of 48 uur of langer wat normaal tarief is.
Het is een landelijk leer/werk traject. (later naar Belgie Duitsland - Denemarken zweden etc. )
Veel kennis wordt verkregen via video's
Van alle handelingen worden kleine videos gemaakt.
Deze worden gekoppeld met een fiets, je weet wat er op de fiets zit en welke handelingen je nodig hebt.
Monteur kan dus zelf via de video leren tav de opdracht die hij te doen heeft.
Ook hier is de structuur die helderheid geeft.
De videos worden ook gebruikt voor de consument beter te informeren.
Wanneer consument beter geïnformeerd wordt en dus helderheid krijgt en bewustzijn dan zegt hij sneller ja tegen een reparatie en h=een prijs die er voor staat. Door de vaste heldere prijzen (arbeid / onderdeel prijs) kunnen we ook snel die helderheid geven.
WE halen het werk binnen via het online platform fietsraparatie.nu
De klant die een reparatie of onderhoudsvraag heeft meld zich op platform en kan of zelf via uitleg zichzelf helpen of via help chat functie of meld de fiets aan voor zijn behoefte. Daarna wordt de fiets aan een collega of aan ons bedrijf gekoppeld.
We krijgen reparatie op maat of aan collega fietsenmakers kunnen we reparatie op maat geven (local hero)
We maken fietsen voor de ANWB,
We maken fietsen voor de particuliere markt
We maken fietsen lease maatschappijen
We maken fietsen voor Stella en andere merken die rechtstreeks leveren of gaan leveren
Eigenlijk doen we reparatie en onderhoud van de volledige markt
Bedrijven gaan de kennis en informatie met ons delen omdat wij ook de garantie van de merken gaan oppakken. eerst is de focus nog op fietsen en reparatie van fietsen buiten de garantie.
Het regelen van garantie vraagt nog een extra stap.

NEW:
The tasks I am not doing today are writing my linkedin post or my blog post. The outsourcing process is still in progress and will benefit my business in the long run. I am busy sorting out my blogwriting automating which is really interesting but very time consuming.
Other tasks I am not doing are developing an online training, new training, writing my new book.
The most important actions will be the blogwriting that I can also use for LinkedIn.
Networking is a time consuming but very worthwhile activity in my business. Lead Generation via LinkedIn is doing very well. I should do my sales follow up with more regularity. Working on my business, looking for freelance trainers, getting them involved in my methodology is important to do as well.
The coming month I will visit at least one more networking event. I will revisit old customers and dedicate more time to automating leads and LinkedIn.
Getting distracted by social media will be priority number one. Shorten my coach session, keep track of time. Working IN my business I want to do less of. Replacing that with working ON my business instead.
Spend less time on social media, skip the news and news apps and less time socializing with my collegues
Doubting myself, putting my energy in something and only receive bad energy, not accepting clients that are not in my target group. Keep investing in outsourcing that will not pay off.
Doubting my self I will STOP

I missed the STOP. Becuase yesterday I kind of had a breakdown becuase I had so much work to do and had a major challenge with my hoilday. I managed, but it was because I stopped doing everything else:)

Day 4 – What to STOP doing
This was a hard one. I feel like I should do MORE in a better organised and practical way so I get more free time. Really stopping things isn't really the case. More a, 'not doing it right now'. So some things I need to stop aren't tasks, actions or activities I should stop.
1. Doing/creating things that aren’t really helping but keep me very busy
2. Starting new projects while I already have too much projects in the air
3. Offering help when already busy without help/value in return
4. Waiting for the perfect time
5. Waiting for it to be perfect
6. Having my phone on at night (next to bed)
7. Watching TV/Smartphone one hour before bedtime
8. Skipping meals
9. Being afraid to fail
10. Offering my wife solutions when she shares her problem with me (have to shut up and listen)
Most important thing right now for me is:
Stop skipping meals. I train a lot and my body needs food. Even if I eat I still eat too little. So skipping meals have to stop but also eating more so my body can handle the amount of training.
Considering the actual question: Starting new projects while I already have too many projects in the air.
I need to prioritize the projects and finish them in the best order. For now, I have to stop starting new projects. Thinking is OK but not doing them now.
34 comments
Day 4: STOP
1. Taking on more work than I can handle
2. Finding excuses for procrastination
3. Making promises I can't keep
4. Doubting myself
5. Taking everything so seriously
6. Asking too little for my services
7. Letting others manage my agenda
8. Accepting clients I know will become trouble
9. Not asking for an upfront fee (client commitment)
10. Spending money on things I don't really need
Planning has become a major issue for me, usually because I take on too much work and work late to get things done. This causes me stress and gives a bad impression to clients. I've now created a schedule of what to do when and I will stop taking on work *right now* if that doesn't fit in the time I have. So, for me it's 1 and 3 from now on. The other ones are equally important, and I will consider all these 'stops' in my activities from now on.

Day 3: LESS
1. Give away my time for free
2. Sleep in late
3. Perfecting things that are already good enough
4. Spend time on social media
5. Postponing tasks I don't like
6. Go to bed late
7. Worrying about time
8. Get distracted by things that interest me, but don't contribute to my business
9. Doing multiple tasks at the same time
10. Thinking I need to do everything myself
These things are actually not easy to do. The biggest problem I have is not having not enough time, but wasting productive time on things that don't contribute to my business. So, I'm going to stop using social media except when needed for my business. No more reading Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn posts. This will save me several hours per week.

Stop
* stop not taking (enough) healthy pauses during work;
* stop taking care of other people too much;
* stop waisting my time by doing other peoples tasks;
* stop trying to persuade other people, especialy when I think they are not open to listen;
* stop pushing myself in behaviour which doesn't suit me ( f.e. in too much directive behaviour and speech;
* stop feeling myself intimidated & manipulated by behaviour of f.e. manager;
* stop with finding and proposing solutions for manager & organisation when I am not convinced;
* stop hiding my idears & principles & opinions to much;
* stop making appointments in my free time, when I have feeling it won't give energy on both sides (unless I have the feeling someone needs help which i can provide without exhausting myself;
* stop making to few choices;
* stoppen met verslaglegging die meer omvat dan actiepunten;
Choice for now (allready making progress):
* stop feeling myself intimidated & manipulated by behaviour of f.e. manager;
(Is not really about my business but will give me more energy, space and time to work on my business.

STOP!
Running after potential customers and hoping that one day they might say yes.
Wasting time behind laptop with pointless googling.
Late to bed.
Worrying.
Do things I don't fully commit to.
Urge to be right.
To feel guilty.
Distrust intuition.
Dropping out when things don't go my way.
Meddling with minor issues.
Top Stop? Wasting time behind laptop with pointless googling.

Dear WOMB community,
I need your HELP
In order to validate the idea for the baby hotel, I applied for a funding to Gemeente Amsterdam for a first trial for baby sleeping coaching. This project needs to have as many votes (likes) as possible.
Would you help me vote?

Day 4
Out of 4 this one has done the most for me
I often tracked what I did in a week for a week. And write everything down. It was amazing to look back then. It is also a method I use in my coaching of CEOs. Default response is first, I don't have time for that. In retrospect, they often say it is one of the most effective exercises they have ever done.
STOP
1. With wanting to be a monkey at times
Everyone is a genius. But if a fish is judged by its ability to climb trees, it will consider itself a failure for the rest of its life. Albert Einstein
2. With worrying.
3. Explaining situations when people are not really interested
* Business: stop overthinking
* Finances: stop not naming what is
* Health: stop going over my limit
* Relationships: stop thinking you have to have a good relationship with everyone
* Personal Growth: stop thinking negatively when I do / eat unhealthy things once
* Contributions: stop thinking that your way of contributing should be different
* Happiness: stop thinking that you should always be happy

WHAT SHOULD I STOP THAT IS ACTUALLY HAMPERING MY BUSINESS (first one is the one of choice for this assignment)
1. Stop being stubborn in not wanting to use trickery marketing
2. Stop wanting that my products are quite affordable
3. Stop the “broadcasting only” strategy, cater for interaction
4. Stop doing business from a WordPress with patchwork-tech website
5. Stop blogging
6. Stop marketing on Twitter
7. Stop being for everyone, allow my own voice to resound
8. Stop working with reselling partners which don’t yield results
9. Stop agreeing with meetings that don’t have a clear outline and/or purpose
It is quite hard to come up with actual *activities* to entirely stop (rather than to just do less), and much easier to think of “current states” or (implicit) decisions that need to stop.

getting distracted with the nice weather
being on social media

spend to long on coaching sessions
loosing track of time

Getting distracted by social media will be priority number one. Shorten my coach session, keep track of time. Working IN my business I want to do less of. Replacing that with working ON my business instead.
Spend less time on social media, skip the news and news apps and less time socializing with my collegues.

Come up with as many tasks, actions or activities you can think of – that you’re already doing in your business, and you should be doing MORE to improve your business in the long run…
Write them ALL down in the comment box below.
Then choose the most important 3 tasks, actions or activities you’re going to do more of in the coming month.
Write them down. This is your commitment.
Networking is a time consuming but very worthwhile activity in my business. Lead Generation via LinkedIn is doing very well. I should do my sales follow up with more regularity. Working on my business, looking for freelance trainers, getting them involved in my methodology is important to do as well.
The coming month I will visit at least one more networking event. I will revisit old customers and dedicate more time to automating leads and LinkedIn.

What to do less?
1. Allow disturbances/interruptions

3. Work in the evening
4. Let my sleep be interrupted
5. Wing it (be badly prepared or badly advised)
6. Front end trainings with just a few participants
7. Plan more than I can do in a day
8. Postpone
9. Cook for lunchbreaks
10. Play games during the breaks

Thank you everyone for the good wishes for tomorrow. I am really excited!

Day 3 – What to do LESS of
Unfortunately, I was forced by the situation to do this exercise a few years ago. I had a serious car accident and then come to do nothing. Was declared 100% incapacitated for work.
Today I still do the things I do very consciously. I already have a lot more energy, but don't do anything without making a conscious choice.
Having said this
LESS
1.Being ready too soon if someone on the team needs me.
2. Getting distracted with everything online
3. Getting stuck in spins

Day 3 13-07-2022
1. Less browsing the internet for stuff for my company.
2. Slightly less pleasant exchanging theories with my wife. That is often more pleasant than useful.
3. Schedule appointments during the day that are private.
4. Fill in my working day less impulsively.
5. Lie in bed a little less in the morning.
6. Moving the care in the bathroom from morning to evening so that I can start earlier in the morning.
7. View product info on YouTube during the day.
I was not so productive for this course, but that was not because I was too distracted or busy with nonsense things. Stephen Covey describes it so beautifully: If you are too busy with tasks that are urgent but not important, you easily fall into the profession with activities that are not urgent and not important. This does not apply to me because I was mainly involved in guiding projects. I said my shift now more to not urgent but important for the future of my company. So my choice falls on 1 and 3. With 2 I'm afraid I'll throw the baby away with the bathwater.
1. Less browsing the internet for stuff for my company.
3. Schedule appointments during the day that are private.
I was already on the right track with these two and also with the rest.

Doing LESS
WOW . This assignment is so confronting for me. I’m doing so much but with little results.
But should I do it less??
Ok I’m coming up with more ideas and see what will happen.
1. follow (and buy!) less programs and start doing.
2. less different things to focus on.
3. Spend time on my mailbox
4. Spend time on private things during work hours
5. Doing things the moment they come up but plan them (I started that but slacked)
6. If I want my business to be more successful I should do less sports- but I don’t want to🙈
7. Do less: jump in for my partner when she’s sick. If it doesn’t work out- it’s her problem. Ok that’s challenging but doable and good
9. Spend time on Patreon. Just finish it grrr
10. Start things and not finishing it. And if I do: finish it wholeheartedly because I don’t believe it gives value instead of feeling guilty that I again didn’t finish something.
Three things I commit to:
1. Buy programs and not do them (it’s actually a stop)
2. Spend time on my mailbox
3. Spend time on patreon. Gonna change it the way they want it and only give a post that says they get access to my own community.

I recognize what you're saying, Gerdy. I also sometimes wonder if something doesn't work because I don't do it enough, or if it doesn't work in itself for my company. I have included this in my choice for my commitment today. Thanks!

WHAT TO DO MORE?
Very challenging assignment for me today. Since I find myself so far from where I want to be in my business, I had a very hard time coming up with ideas on what to do more. For a moment my brain froze thinking there was nothing to write. Luckily after all, I could come up with this list:
1. Engage proactively with potential and existing clients
2. Listen actively to them in order to find out what they want
3. Write down ideas about how to give them what they want and then what they need (add value)
4. Pursuing to always bring value and inspiration
5. Continue writing blog posts
6. Writing down ideas consistently
7. Journaling about my entrepreneurial journey
8. Reading entrepreneurial & business books
9. Listening to audiobooks
10. Studying Business University

I see, Maru, that you got the hang of making the text bold, but assuming that you didn't want to BOLD EVERYTHING (which is a bit like shouting), you need to also tell WordPress where to end the bolded part.
You can find here a quick tutorial to HTML tags (bold, italics, underline...): https://www.w3schools.com/HTML/html_formatting.asp

Thank you Nisandeh for sending the tutorial! Indeed I did not intend to bold everything 😅 I realize I missed the / at the end. Now trying to see if it works and will repost my comment. Could you then please erase the shouting one?

Dag 2 – week 4 Wat MEER te doen van
Bedenk zoveel mogelijk taken, acties of activiteiten die u kunt bedenken – die u al doet in uw bedrijf, en u zou MEER moeten doen om uw bedrijf op de lange termijn te verbeteren…
- netwerken
- samenwerken
- in systemen denken
- doen
- naar beurs (mensen ontmoeten)
- naar beurs (mijn verhaal vertellen)
- online hiermee zichtbaar zijn
- potcast weer oppakken en systeem / dag voor plannen van welk onderwerp en dag van opname
- samenwerkingen zoeken
- verdiepen in het geen ik mee bezig ben
- geniet van waar ik mee bezig ben
- vieren van waar ik mee bezig ben
- de noodzaak (en de inzichten en mogelijkheden ) die er is geeft dat kracht
- helder hebben in pitch wat doe ik
- helder in een pitch hebben wie ben ik
- helder in een pitch hebben waarom doe ik dit
Kies vervolgens de belangrijkste 3 taken, acties of activiteiten waar je de komende maand meer van gaat doen.
Vanmiddag naar Duitsland, dat woensdag en donderdag naar de grootste fietsbeurs van Europa de eurobike.
- Hier afspreken met team world of e-mobility
- toekomstige partners aan spreken
- focus houden
Dit werkt goed voor mij in de ochtend bedenken wat en hoe ik de dingen ga doen, dagelijks komt er meer rust en helderheid en scherpte. Ook innerlijk opschoning gehouden door na achttien jaar medicijn gebruik (sinds maand geen medicatie meer) een leverreiniging en daar behoorlijke opbrengst. energie kan nu ook weer beter stromen. Dus naast het zorgen voor bedrijf heb ik te zorgen voor mezelf. Het is te slotte zo dat het beste bedrijf begint bij jezelf.
Heb een mooie dag
183 comments
Dag 1 – week 4 bedenk minstens 10 ideeën wat NIEUW is om toe te voegen en kies de 1-2 NIEUWE taken, acties of activiteiten die je de komende week wilt toevoegen;
- meer samenwerken (als ik alleen blijf doen gaat het minder snel en minder kwaliteit)
- vertrouwen dat mensen die op pad komen dat geven wat ik nodig heb)
- goed luisteren
- team als buddy's
- mastermind team
- meer verbinden met de doelgroep
- mensen meenemen in wat we doen
- beurs bezoeken en contacten leggen
- actief op linkedin
- kleine stappen (zijn veel beter dan die grote stappen) dit te gebruiken in hele proces (die van me zelf en ik aan bied)
- vieren van succes
- processen uitschrijven
- meteen noteren van idee, niet denken doe ik straks wel
- dankbaar zijn
- ervaren en hoe ik geholpen wordt in wat ik zelf vraag (denk ik negatief dan krijg ik dat) (denk ik positief dan krijg ik dat )

Prize lists making can be an excellent reflection moment. As is the case for prize lists 😉 I might think about a prize list myself today, thank you for the inspiration.
215 comments
Do you mean a pricing list (to communicate the price of your items) or indeed a prize list (a list of things people can win - e.g. in gamified interactions with your audience, or as a referral reward, etc)? The latter is an interesting one for me as well.
111 comments
Ha Machiel, ik bedoel een prijslijst voor training en coach-sessies. Dit is gebaseerd op mijn eigen behoefte aan duidelijkheid als ik een website bezoek. Voor mij kan het een afhaak-moment zijn als ik me orienteer en moet bellen voor de kosten.

Dat vermoedde ik al, maar door de typo stond er in het Engels iets anders (prijzen om te winnen), wat ik ineens een leuk idee vond.

NEW:
The tasks I am not doing today are writing my linkedin post or my blog post. The outsourcing process is still in progress and will benefit my business in the long run. I am busy sorting out my blogwriting automating which is really interesting but very time consuming.
Other tasks I am not doing are developing an online training, new training, writing my new book.

10. Discovering the sweet spot of my target group together with the volunteer team.
11. An e-mail announcing to my clients that I am going to call them and ask them if they know someone in their network that I could meet without obligation.
12. In any case, I make far too little use of my network contacts. I could make a list of three names of people I'm going to contact on Mondays every week. Developing a sort of routine that I call three new people from my network every week.
13. Every week I can approach new supervisors with the question what they think is an interesting topic about which I can write a blog. In this way I make it easy to make contact and I know what is going on with them.
14. I will inform where entrepreneurs from my area meet to network more.
The conclusion is once again clear to me. I speak too few people and I have to get moving. I will do the first three anyway because they are easy.
The real new activities I will be working on are two:
11. An e-mail announcing to my clients that I am going to call them and ask them if they know someone in their network that I could meet without obligation.
13. I can approach new managers every week with the question what they think is an interesting topic about which I can write a blog. In this way I make it easy to make contact and I know what is going on with them.

On getting out more. It might help to have a change of scenery. And to think about low resistence ways to meet people. I don't like phoning, so i send them a text asking to meet. Or i register for an expensive meetup. (No ditching expensive events, i do skipp small fee events and it has higher level people visiting the event). Small step, and the rest just happens.
Whats your small first step in meeting up with people?
477 comments
Thank you Sin,
That's a good idea to visit the better events. The first smallest step is to Google what events are available for managers.

Since Friday, I chose all 67 ideas from the 347 I generated so far that I wanted to implement, and devided them into me new, me more, me stop, delegate and automate.
The delegation part will be done this afternoon except for one.
The new or more me tasks are all started by step 1 or more and added in my system of implementation.
I implemented 1 stop action over night. Will need a few hours in future to wrap it up.
The steps to automate the bulk of my business are planned out since Saterday, delegated where possible, and as every day for the last six months I aim for at least one new step in that proces while keeping up with normal activities.
So... I'm good for this week. No need to post or do more then what is planned already. That will be this week's do less.
I won't share my feelings about celebrating in future posts. I find it hard when being publicly wacked for opening up about stuff that are on the more vulnerable side. As said before, entrepreneurs have a hard time celebrating. I just wanted to share that I did not feel reason to celebrate. There is nothing to fix there. Nor to put sense in my brain. The take away for me was that implementation is cause for celebration, not making the list. A list is just an open loop, versus integration results that are a success feeling generator to me.
It took me some time to figure that out, that's all. Had hoped for feedback on how to get that feeling, got a slightly different reaction from some. That's ok. I got there on my own in the end.
Same goes for taking massive action. I'm not going to apologize for giving 100%.
Have fun. See you all on Friday.

You never have to apologize for being who you are, Sin.

Stay as you are and dont apologize!
And thank you for your input.

Hey Sin, I understand your agitation, especially whereas all of us (and the program owners most definitely) can see and appreciate how committed you are. So then obviously it feels like an attack to get "exposed", just for being frank about not being in a cheering mood (and even for an on-topic reason). Note however that I'm pretty sure that the remarks that you were responding to were not addressed to you personally. Already for 2 or 3 weeks, a number of remarks have been placed about the celebration thing. So I think that those remarks (that you were responding to) were meant as a general slap in the face of all the community members who suggest or only feel that "this week's effort celebration" is not always worthwhile (and I'm one of them, although I'm happy to shift my focus to the various other things in life that are worthwhile to celebrate, and call it "celebrating all the good things", which includes putting efforts into this trajectory). I think it is a good idea to indeed tune out for a couple of days to let it rest, given that you've already completed the assignment for the whole week, and are implementing like crazy. Keep going.

O, thank you for your reply, but I did not take the general message as personal :,) Reading back, it might sound that way.
I was only responding to Vered's reply to my message. That was personal judgement and uncalled for.
As stated in the very first preparation: i'm looking for questions, not judgements. There's a reason I put that there 😀 Not my first time around here, and there are more then 50 reasons why I keep returning. Always excellent guidance, but sometimes too extensive judging.
Ok, time for some more shopshop implementation work 😀

Our feedback, Machiel (AND EVERYONE ELSE) is never meant as a “slap in the face”.
Why would we bother…?
Our feedback is offering a hand to step up your game (not personally YOU, but the group - in general).
As coaches and mentors we aim to “pull you up” not to judge or slap or criticize anyone.
Please realize that the easiest thing in the world for us is to say, “they already paid us, we deliver tons of value, we did our job… now - if they want to take it - great, if not - not”.
This approach will be “smoother” for everyone - as everyone feels good.
But the purpose of the program is NOT for you to “feel good” - it’s about you WORKING ON YOUR BUSINESS.
So, for you and anyone else…
Please focus on what’s important for YOU.
We will NEVER do ANYTHING, on PURPOSE, to hurt your feelings.
And if we ever do hurt someone’s feelings… we apologize as soon as we realize that (or made aware of that).
And yet… we’re going to be there for you ALL… in the best way we understand it.
Sometimes you’d like it, sometimes you won’t, sometimes you won’t understand.
But do ask yourself… where, in the whole world, would you get the care, attention and engagement you get from us - in a process that is not one-on-one?

A slap in the face by coaches is not meant to hurt feelings, but to wake up to see their intention. I meant it in the second way, not the first, so all is fine.

Whoa. Adding 10 new things on my list- the idea is tiring me upfront 🙈 but it’s good to read your intro first that coming up with the ideas but doesn’t mean to implement them all.
To me the money is in the stop doing, I think. But there are a few things that I can do to make my life easier.
I mean… there are 100s of things I can do but they will not make me happy, and not make my company grow the way that I want it.
1. Start with a planning every day. I do this regularly but not every day. I should simply start with it- or even better- the day before. This will also be my implementation strategy. Especially now that my kids are at home and we’re going on holiday- it helps me so much to structure my day… it’s more a “do more” action but so needed for me
2. Be on LinkedIn and react on 5 posts – this is new
3. Create a LinkedIn post every day – especially in summer this is good for visibility - this is more “do more”
4. Create a list of companies that I want to work with
5. Do a shoot to create 100 different pictures for posts (I need to plan this but it’s on my list forever and it would be good to have it)
6. Make a list of people whose linkedin contacts I’ll search through
7. Start building up my mailing list. Not doing anything about that yet. I could make that very practical and combine it with the linkedin posts- and send it to people. It’s also more a “do more” thing…
8. Find the press. Write. I love writing so this is easy. Find more ways how I can use writing to add.
9. Start blogging. I didn’t do that so far either. Why not- because I don’t have a mailing list. But… I do! On LinkedIn. I should blog again… hmmm… also a “do more”
10. ok. Here’s what I start. I pick 3 things that I will do daily, and I will ONLY do those and nothing else. It’s even scary to say this!
11. I am starting also with creating templates for everything I do. Already started with this, but I'll post it here as well:)
12. One thing I also started yesterday that I never did before: I started to collect feedback on trainings and plan with Mirjam (my sister and co-trainer) to have a look at it and make a plan how we can improve.
The planning is what I will do from now on, every day.
My thing that I will start TODAY: I am committing myself now to find out how to write an "opiniestuk" there is a fantastic challenge going on and I will participate. It's one week so I can do it before I go on holiday. It will fulfill many purposes: most important: what is interesting for the media? It will help me to become outspoken- I tend to find the middle where everybody likes me. Next to that it would be great if the book is picked up.
