ANECDOTE

A Week Where Everything Collided

  • Dana describes an out-of-routine week: travel, speaking, decluttering project, doctor appointments, and volunteering that forced her to let some content go.
  • She used that week to illustrate how unexpected events compress your planned work and require reprioritizing.
ADVICE

Delegate Content Prep Tasks

  • Delegate image creation and publication prep to an assistant so your time focuses on original content.
  • Dana shoots pictures and writes content while her assistant formats images, builds newsletters, and schedules posts.
ADVICE

Batch And Automate Recurring Tasks

  • Batch and automate recurring tasks to save ongoing mental energy, for example writing a month's worth of Facebook blurbs in one sitting.
  • Dana's assistant schedules posts and a Pinterest service manages pins so she doesn't scramble daily.
