ENOUGH with the hustle! Here’s the best way to make 2023 a success
November 2nd 2022 – Written By Stephanie Sheargold
Fed up with the unachievable ‘advice’ on social media about insane ways to make a difference to your working life?
Us too. We think they’re great if you’re a complete hustler with endless energy, bottomless pockets and no family or friends to worry about. But chances are, you’re not.
In our book, success only comes with hard work, planning and a great support network.
That’s why we’ve pulled out five of our favourite ‘get rich quick’ ideas, and given them the Timpi sense check…
1. Discover a passive income stream that requires minimal work
There’s no such thing. Whether you want to create a course, become a YouTube sensation or write an Amazon bestseller, these things take time and effort. Get some support in the right places however, and with time and effort, you can create a passive income stream. In fact, it’s one of the things we support our clients with!
2. Finally crack TikTok/Insta/LinkedIn and have an endless, effortless source of leads
Again. It’s perfectly possible to ‘crack’ social media, but it requires a lot of work. You need strategic thinking, original thought, self-belief and (let’s face it) lots of editing time. However, get someone to give you a hand with creating and posting your social media posts and you’ll be moving in the right direction.
3. Hustle until you find the PERFECT client
Ah, the perfect client. Sadly, your commercial soulmate will spot a hustler at a hundred paces. Business success is about relationship building, and for that, you need to invest time. Networking events, follow-ups, 121s… they all take time! Make an effort to book and attend meetings and calls with the people you meet, helping create the valuable relationships that will in time result in dream clients.
4. Invest in yourself with 6am daily meditations, 90 minutes of yoga at lunch and an 8.30pm bedtime
Great idea. And yes, it probably does make a difference. However, without the right support, all that time away from your desk and family/partner is going to result in unanswered emails, missed opportunities and an irritated other half. Find a balance and get some admin support that will help you make time for a lunch break and a decent amount of time off in the evening.
5. Discover deep working
Now this really can help you succeed but is so difficult to actually achieve! That is unless, you can find someone to answer your phone calls, monitor your emails and stay on top of your socials. That way you can crack on with your work in the knowledge that nothing is going to slip through the net.
