017 - Procrastination is Costing You Money

The 2 Cents Business Podcast

There are few things that kill momentum and cost you more money than procrastination.

Lack of planning, and lack of productivity don’t exact;y help the cause either.

I know because I admit it, I’m a recovering procrastinator.

For instance, it took me a week longer than it should have to get off my axx and batch record the podcast episodes for August (including this one).

So I guess that this episode is sort of a case study in my own attempt at getting back on track, recovering and reminding myself how to be a lot more productive and get stuff done…so that I can actually outsource a few things, spend a lot less time working and more time hanging out with my friends and family.

Tips that you can use if you’re a newbie, a side-hustler or veteran business owner.
