I am beyond grateful. As we look toward the new year=2C many of you are thinking about how to ma= ke 2024 fantastic. Here's the number one way to make that happen. To knock the socks off of 2024=2C you must schedule time to work on your b= usiness several times a week=2C every week=2C and stick to your plan no ma= tter what else is going on in your life. You must put it on your calendar=2C close the door=2C turn off your phone= =2C and silence notifications on your computer. Tell anyone sharing your w= ork space not to interrupt you and focus on what=E2=80=99s most important= in your business. I=E2=80=99m not talking about cleaning off your desk=2C organizing your di= gital files=2C or learning a new application because you think it will att= ract clients.

I won=E2=80=99t kid you; blocking time to work on your business will be un= comfortable=2C and there is a tendency to make everything else in life mor= e urgent or important to justify avoiding doing this. But that=E2=80=99s j= ust because you=E2=80=99re afraid=2C which is normal. But just because it= =E2=80=99s normal doesn=E2=80=99t mean you=E2=80=99ve got to surrender to= it. Think about the alternative to scheduling=2C protecting your time=2C and s= taring down your fear: it=E2=80=99s giving up on your dreams. Your dream t= o make the money you want=2C work from home=2C have time freedom=2C and do= work that makes you happy. I know you can do this.
