It's not all about putting in the work. You have to let time do its part as well. Patience is a skill just as much as persistence is. You need both. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dv/exclusive-content

You can balance out your daily quotas with weekly quotas. The latter provides you more freedom in how you want to spend those days within a week. Don't limit your metrics of productivity to what gets done in a day. You can extend that metric to what gets done in a week. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dv/exclusive-content
