How Beyoncé Gets Things Done

You can have it all. You just can’t do it all.

It’s not that you suck at time management.

A new to do list app won’t help you get it all done.

You don’t have your priorities fucked up.

You’re ambitious. A go getter. Big plans.

And you chip away at them everyday.

Sure, some days you want to bathe in a tub of cheese fondue and forget the world.

Congratulations! You’re human.

But you’ve got this whole superwoman thing backwards.

Have you heard the saying: You have the same hours in the day as Beyoncé?

People use that quote to make you get off your arse and do all the things.

Because you’re not doing enough.

And Beyoncé is doing it all.

Fuck that.

She’s doing her bit.

And her team are doing the rest.

Yes, you can have it all.

You just can’t do it all yourself.

And why would you?

Why would you want to set aside 2 hours a week to clean the house when instead you could spend that time taking yourself out for a coffee date?

Why would you want to spend hours making pastry from scratch in an attempt to become a domestic goddess when you can just buy the crust shell and enjoy that time savouring every mouthful of pecan pie.

And why would you want to be a CEO who has to spend a whole day writing sales copy when you could hire someone to do it so you can get back to taking care of clients, inspiring people with your big idea, and spontaneously booking that spa treatment you've put off for so long?

The path to having it all is not doing it all.

It’s delegation.

Getting a team to support you.

So what are you going to remove from your to do list and add to your to delegate list?

You absolutely deserve to have it all.

But you’ll never get it all if you try to do it all yourself.
