Optimise to get your time back

⏱️ What if you could get back just 30 minutes a day?

Time is your most precious resource — yet it slips away into unfinished tasks and endless to-dos. Before you know it — your day’s gone.

Here’s how to spot those sneaky time drains and reclaim control.

🎯 1. Set Your Target:

How much time do you want to win back? 15 minutes? An hour? A whole day each week? Be specific.

🕵️‍♀️ 2. Find Your Time Thieves:

What’s sucking the life out of your day? Common culprits for small biz owners include:

• Manual Chores: Chasing for info, trying to find docs & files.

  
  

• Tech Overload: Too many apps that don’t talk to each other.

  
  

• Broken Processes: Bottlenecks and fuzzy workflows.

  
  

• Email Chaos: Inbox checking, never-ending threads.

📌 3. Tackle the Biggest Time Drains:

Ask yourself:

• What’s most frustrating?

• Where do you lose the most time?

• Which fix will give the biggest win?

Focus on one high-impact area to score a quick win.

🛠️ 4. Apply the Fixes:

Automate Routine Tasks: Scheduling, reminders or outsource the basics.

Streamline Workflows: Chop unnecessary steps, clarify who does what.

Inbox Boundaries: Set limits, close & ignore email for periods.

Optimise Your Tech: Simplify tools or switch to integrated systems.

📊 5. Measure Your Wins:

Track your progress:

Time Saved: How many hours (or minutes) are you reclaiming each week?

Efficiency Gains: Are tasks getting done faster and smoother?

Business Boost: Are you able to take on more clients or projects?

Stress Check: Are you feeling calmer and more in control?

A quick weekly review will show you just how much time you’re winning back.

Small wins add up fast! Reclaiming 30 minutes a day = 2.5 hours a week — time to grow your business or just get your life back.
