More isn't always better...in fact, more is usually worse.

Summary:
In this episode, I talk about the Law of Diminishing Returns and how too much can lead to less progress. Using a story from my dad’s furniture store, I explain how adding more people or tasks often creates chaos instead of better results. I share practical examples, like over-seasoning food or over-editing content, to show how this law plays out in everyday life and business. Key Takeaways:

• More Isn’t Always Better: Whether it’s moving furniture, training kids, or micromanaging, doing too much can backfire.
• Four Tips to Do Less and Get More:
  1. Set a Deadline – Create urgency.
  2. Start Small – Don’t fear mistakes.
  3. Eliminate, Automate, or Delegate – Free up time.
  4. Focus on the Big Picture – Keep your eyes on why you’re doing this.
• Embrace Imperfection: Done is better than perfect. Stop tweaking endlessly and start shipping!

If you’re constantly over-editing, micromanaging, or obsessing over tasks, it’s time to simplify. Focus on completing tasks, not perfecting them.
