Imagine being able to love what you do and do what you love – without the constant feeling of being bogged down by endless busy work. It may sound too good to be true, but eliminating unnecessary tasks can dramatically improve your productivity, reduce stress, and free up time for the high-impact work that truly matters.
The key is to take a close look at how you’re currently spending your time and ruthlessly cut out the busy work. I know this can be challenging – we all have those tasks that feel important, even when they’re really just keeping us busy rather than moving the needle. But I’m here to show you a simple 3-step process to identify and eliminate your busy work for good.
First, take an audit of your typical week. Make a list of every single task you find yourself doing, from responding to emails to organizing your calendar. Don’t hold back – be honest about even the little things that eat up your time.
Next, review that list and ask yourself: which of these tasks are truly essential, and which ones are just busy work that I can eliminate? Things like constant social media check-ins, organizing your desk drawers, or making unnecessary phone calls can often be cut without any negative impact.
Finally, for the tasks you can’t eliminate entirely, look for ways to automate or delegate them instead. This might mean setting up email filters, using productivity apps, or enlisting the help of an assistant. The goal is to clear as much off your plate as possible so you can focus on your highest-leverage activities.
It won’t be easy at first, but I promise the payoff is worth it. Eliminating busy work is the key to loving what you do and doing what you love. Let’s get started.

Would love to hear what you have eliminated from your list. Please reply to my blog and let’s share ideas.
