Grinding vs Clocking – Time and the Overnight Success

This is part 7 of the Overnight Success video series. In this one, I talk about how important taking some time away and replenishing is to your overall success. Some times, we’re grinding (working and really making things happen). Other times, we’re clocking (we’re there supposedly working, but we’re just pushing hours, not really getting anything done). The point of this video is to suggest that getting away from everything is just as important as pushing hours at tasks. You with me?

I thought I was being smart for the last 2 years by working l;onger and harder than anybody else and sure it showed some great results but what you really have to think is after I have been working hard all weekend the guys who had rested up forr the weekend were coming in and killing it while I was as sluggish as hell. Getting the balance right is key but it is no easy task at the start when you want to achieve everything!

Perfect timing on this comment: Put the hours in as long as you're getting the results. Once you stop getting more results (this *will* happen), then cut your hours back. Remember, once you're ahead, it's easier to stay ahead. It's the getting ahead that's the hard part.
