You could go 4 hours unplugged before you were needed
So enjoy your half day to yourself.
The pros and cons of being a Half Dayer…
You’ve created an incredible business from scratch.
The fact that you have clients or customers, you have products to sell, and you created a business to begin with speaks VOLUMES to your determination, stamina, and worth ethic as an owner.
You created something out of nothing and that can’t be understated.
You have some processes or team members in place already.
In order to take a Half Day at all, you have already started to automate and templatize your business. These small steps will take you from a small business owner to a CEO if you keep going and keep clockworking.
The more you can delegate and trust others, the more freedom for you.
You have serious clockworking potential.
Even hiring 1 more A-team player or implementing a new process will give you SO MUCH time back. When you are a Half Dayer, even a weekend staycation will feel like a 5-star resort vacation at this point.
Making time to clockwork your business will give you MORE time.
You are stuck delegating and then taking back the task.
As a Half Dayer, you have started to delegate parts of your business but you find that you take it back and end up doing it yourself anyway. You fear that someone else won’t do it as well as you will.
Half Dayers typically say, “If you want something done right, do it yourself”
You put out a lot of fires but don’t seem to be moving forward.
You feel reactionary in your business instead of proactive to change, new opportunities, or challenges. Every day seems to be new fires you have to deal with instead of taking your business to the next level.
You want to be the LEADER of your business but feel stuck as the DOER, with your phone permanently glued to your hand “just in case”.
Your business is affecting your relationships and life.
Because you can only take a Half Day, that means vacations keep getting pushed to the next business milestone. Your family is nagging you for more time but so is your business. You feel torn.
Your business and your family need you to be in control of your time and energy.

Co-Founder of
The Bucketlist Bombshells
Running a business as a solo founder is hard, so it is nice to get input from someone outside my company. My team members have been happy to take over some of the roles that I have been holding onto and doing by myself. I’m more conscious about the changes that I need to implement each week in order for my business to depend less on me.
Founder at Ombu Labs, The Lean Software Boutique
I wanted my team to run like clockwork, without my constant input, and now we’re well on our way to making that a reality. The content was killer and it was just the right amount, not overwhelming. The best part of it was that everything was very actionable + transformational.
