How Solopreneurs Can Boost Productivity with Tech-based and Freelance Support
Starting a new business is a major endeavor. When you decide to do it solo, it becomes an even bigger commitment.

With the right help, you can increase your business’s chance of success while decreasing your stress levels.
Why I get up at 4 am and you should too if you want to be more productive.
I find I get more done in those 3-3.5 hours before my wife and kids get up than any other point of time during the day. I have a list in Todoist called my morning routine and most of it is to make sure my wife doesn’t wake up to a mess from the kids (and me) but once that list is done I am able to focus on whatever I want…from reading to making videos or writing. There is no limit to what I will work on in the early morning hours. One thing I love is the ability to review emails and my projects completely distracted-free, it has been a complete game-changer for me and my productivity.

When I see someone have an iPhone with 15 pages of apps it drives me nuts! I want to grab their phone, look at the app list, and see when the last time they used some of those apps, and delete them. What about your desktop on your Mac or PC, is it full of files and pictures that have been there forever? What about your email? I personally try to always keep a zero inbox, but I see people in the corporate world that still have all of their emails in the inbox and some people have hundreds still unread…again does that instill confidence in a person when you see that, nope.
