Do you ever feel like there aren't enough hours in the day? If so, you're not alone.
As business owners, we set big, lofty goals for ourselves but then struggle with being productive and accomplishing everything we need to get done.
Life gets busy and there’s a lot of background noise we need to tune out if we’re gonna stay focused and concentrate on the work that will move us closer to achieving our goals.
In today’s episode, we share examples from our own hand dyed yarn businesses on how you can be as productive as possible without sacrificing your personal or social life in the process.

- What are SMART Goals and why are they important [00:03:30]
- Lessons you can take from tracking your time [00:05:58]

...and so much more!
