You know that conversation you've been rehearsing in the shower for two weeks? The email you keep rewriting but can't manage to send? The client whose Slack notification makes your stomach tighten before you've even read a word?
Those situations don't just take time. They take capacity.
Every time you replay the conversation in your head, rewrite the email one more time, or spend the evening thinking about a client, you're using time and energy that could be going somewhere else.
Every drain in your business got in through a decision: a yes that should have been a no, a conversation that got postponed, or a project whose scope quietly grew over time. None of those decisions seemed significant in the moment, but together they shape the experience of running your business.
