What's Piddling Really About? It's when you hide behind low-impact tasks (organizing your desk, tweaking your website, or doing laundry) to AVOID the real work that actually grows your business.
If you piddle around too much in your business - its going to slow down your business growth.
I learned this the hard way. My first year of coaching was a career flop—I was too busy piddling, letting fear and self-doubt distract me from what truly mattered.
Why does this happen?
It's your nervous system needing regulation, seeking comfort in small, insignificant tasks. This happens because the emotions you're avoiding are causing deep discomfort. As a result, you resort to busy work as a shield against facing fears or old wounds.
The price tag on piddling isn't just wasted time – it's costing you real money, killing your confidence, and keeping your business in the kiddie pool when it could be swimming in the deep end.
Want to Stop Piddling? Here's Your Wake-Up Call:
Regulate Your Nervous System: A calm, focused nervous system helps you tackle tough tasks without overwhelm.
Face Your Emotions: Piddling often masks fear or self-doubt. Process these feelings through journaling, meditation, or EFT tapping to move forward.
Prioritize What Matters: Focus on the 20% of tasks that yield 80% of results. Start with high-impact work, not distractions.
Set Boundaries: Protect your time by eliminating tasks that don’t align with your goals. Work smarter, not harder.
Limit Piddling Time: Allow 10–15 minutes for minor distractions, then refocus on meaningful work.
Look, I get it – piddling feels safe, soothing, and even fun. It feels productive.
But here's the brutal truth: while you're color-coding your filing system, your competitors are out there crushing it and stealing your potential customers.
Your future self will thank you for choosing growth over comfort, impact over safety, and real progress over busy work.
