Find the Easier Way

In this chapter I’ve tried to introduce you to the world of automation by reviewing four of the most common types of automation. We started with self-automation, which challenged you to examine your daily routines and build rituals around the things you’re already doing (or want to do) each day. Second, we examined template automation, which called you always to ask yourself, What components of this project will I use again? This helps you identify repetitive tasks that are ripe for automation. Third, we explored process automation, which is firmly based on documented workflows. And fourth, we dipped our toes in the waters of technology automation as we examined four different categories of tech solutions. I hope these four types of automation have shown you what’s possible once you start looking for ways to automate your business and your life.

If you ever find yourself thinking, There has got to be an easier way to do this, you should always assume there is. Then go find it. If you apply this question to everything you do on a regular basis, you’ll be amazed at how much time, trouble, effort, and energy you can save on all the little tasks that whittle away at your resources. Automating your life will make things easier, free up your creativity, give you greater focus on the higher-leverage activities you need to accomplish, and generally make you more productive every day. Automation is one of the most useful tools in my productivity toolbox, and now it can be one of yours too.

Once you’ve finished the following exercises, you’re ready to move on to the next chapter. There you’ll learn how to handle the remaining tasks you can’t eliminate or automate by understanding the power of delegation. This one is powerful, even if you don’t think you have anyone to delegate to. You’ll learn tips and strategies that even the most isolated solopreneur can implement immediately, so don’t miss it.
