In this episode, we discuss the power of daily routines and habits with entrepreneur Aaron Dodge. Aaron shares how falling into a depressive state led him to reevaluate his routines and implement crucial morning and evening habits. These daily habits have fueled consistent 25% annual revenue growth. He also reveals how building an online community called "The Slow Burn Squad" provides accountability and support for fellow solopreneurs. Listen to learn how small, intentional routines can boost your productivity and mental wellbeing.
Takeaways:
- Consistency with a morning routine, like waking up early and working out daily, is important for overcoming depression and staying productive.
- Setting intentions and making decisions the night before can help avoid excuses that prevent sticking to a morning routine.
- Having an accountability partner, like Aaron's wife, makes it much easier to commit to an early wake up time every day.
- Implementing evening work sessions provides an opportunity to compound progress on business goals over time through consistent daily effort.
- Measuring business metrics routinely, like calls and outreach, helps boost performance and growth.
- Building an online community provides valuable support and accountability for staying motivated, especially during low periods.
