What if you could only work four days a week and you had to stop working at 2:00
PM every single day? What would happen to your business? As always,

Welcome to powerhouse business on YouTube. I'm your host, Carolyn Soldo.
I'm a business owner, business scaling master and mom of two boys.
I love thinking big, pushing boundaries and doing things differently.
Most of all,
I'm all about achieving massive growth with ease and how did you scale your
business by living the life you love? Let's go. As entrepreneurs,
we all have the same goals. He wants to grow our business in the simplest,
easiest, and most effective way, right? But at the same time,
usually we work a lot. Many entrepreneurs say,
I wish I could work less, but I just don't know how,
and that's why I asked you this question.
One of my female clients from Austria in Europe actually has this schedule,
and she told me that she takes a stance for only working four days a week.
She takes Fridays off and stopping her day at 2:00 PM so that she can be with
her little son. He's two years old and with her family, with her husband,
and create a beautiful life.
And that's very unusual I think because most entrepreneurs don't take that for
themselves. They actually work more. They neglect their family,
they neglect their health, all in the name of money and debt business.
And I know you can actually have both. So this is interesting, right?
Maybe you're thinking, well, yeah, this client probably has a side business.
Maybe she makes candles or oils or she, she has a business,
but that could not be further from the truth.
This client owns a seven figure business. Okay.
So she runs a very successful company and month after month she comes to me and
she tells me that she's making more money, she's having more fun,
she's working with more customers and clients and she's sticking to her
schedule. So how is that possible? Let's talk about it. I'm looking at her.
I think she really cracked the code for growing a business in a way that does
not literally kill your schedule. It doesn't impact your health,
it doesn't impact your family or your relationships,
but instead it allows you to build a beautiful business and a beautiful life.
Now I attributed this to her talents, her intelligence, her abilities.
This client is amazing and I feel so blessed that I was able to give her
disability to be with her family and her son and she even built a brand new
house.
I want to make sure that everybody knows this and that you as a service based
business owner know that you know how to have a beautiful schedule,
a beautiful business, and a beautiful life. Think about this for a moment.
What would happen in your business if you only work four days a week and you had
to stop working at 2:00 PM every single day? Well, they think about it, I think,
but what happened is that we would naturally have to really focus in and be very
selective and it comes to what we actually do and that's the biggest problem.
Many business owners like to be busy, okay?
Our brain likes to be Gogo girl. We like to be busy,
which makes us feel accomplished. It makes us feel productive.
We like multitasking, right?
But does all that stuff really get you ahead?
Do all of these tasks really make you money?
Do they get you more satisfied? Customers? Do they make you happier?
I bet that when you look at your week and all the things you do there,
there will be many, many things that actually don't make you any more money.
Don't get you ahead. Maybe they need to be done,
but you could easily outsource them or delegate them to someone else,
put them on someone else's plate. So if you will,
forced to focus in on three days or four days,
you would have to naturally just do the stuff that's most important in your
business. And why not do that right now? Starting today,
you could make this commitment and say,
I'm only going to work on the things that are most important to me that are
helping my customers that help my business and make me more, more money.
And that actually make me more satisfied as well.
If you take the time to really sit down and answer these questions and ask
yourself, what would I do if I only had four days a week?
What your brain will do is on a silver platter,
it would serve up to you the most important activities in your business. Okay?
It's really, really interesting. And then if you just followed these activities,
I bet your business would grow by leaps and bounds and you could actually do
this in just four days a week.
The other thing you'll realize is that your business probably has a lot more
potential than you think. Okay? So I want to challenge you to do this right now.
Sit down and come up with a list of activities that you have to do that you
would focus on if you only had four days a week to do them and you would have to
stop working at 2:00 PM every single day.
And I bet if you actually implement this,
your business will grow by leaps and bounds. My name is Carolyn Soldo.
I hope that the strategies and tactics I'm sharing in these videos are really,
really impactful for you already.
You can really see how they can move the needle in your business and you enjoy
watching them just as much as I enjoy making them for you.

it's so clear that she is a business professional and get on the plane,
get on the bus, drive here,
whatever you need to do to get here because you're going to learn so much and
meet so many inspiring people.
This is exactly what I was looking for.
She is intuitive and how she identifies because she's been through it herself,
the pitfalls that we can fall into and she just corrupts them and solves them.
