BTB Episode 148: Automating Your Life and Work

Brands that Book Show, Find Direction and Advice

filed in

The system Graham uses to work
only 5 hours a Week

“Start by eliminating the things that you really don’t need. Most people skip that, and they just assume everything they’re doing is important and then they’re like, “how can I do it faster or get someone else to do it?” I think those are bad assumptions to start with. I think you should start with challenging everything you do in your business; does this make a difference and if so does it make much of a difference.”

Introduction

The entrepreneur, Youtuber, and Business Coach Graham Cochran joins me on the podcast to discuss how to automate and optimize your life and work. He shares with me the framework he uses to grow his business while only working five hours per week.

If you don’t know Graham I highly recommend checking out episode three of the podcast to learn more about his story because it’s a remarkable one. I’m really excited about his latest project to the release of his book, “How to Get Paid for What You Know,” which will be available on March 22nd.

I’ve included a link to it in the show notes and if you pre-order the book you could also get access to some pre-order bonuses. I’ve included that information in the show notes as well and listen I don’t get any kickback for promoting his book I just learned a lot from Graham I believe that this book is going to be awesome and potentially a game-changer for a lot of people.
