Create More Success and Cash Flow By Working Less
Have you ever noticed how much more productive you are when you take a day away from your business just to recharge (like a 4 day workweek)? Your creativity improves, your focus sharpens and your motivation rises, all by working less. With more and more entrepreneurs seeking a balance between work and play and seeing their bank account growing in the process, how did society ever land on a 40-hour workweek?
On Amplify Your Success Podcast episode 277, my guest Joe Sanok, author of the 4 Day Workweek, joins me to share what he discovered when he set out on a mission to work less, make more, and continue to grow his impact along the way.
Inside this episode, you’ll hear a lot about how Henry Ford influenced today’s 5-day workweek norms (and what Joe discovered about productivity and high achievers by searching for the key to time freedom.)
