There is a very specific stage of business where you’re successful enough to have a team, experienced enough to know better, and somehow still answering the “quick question” because yes, technically, it WILL be faster if you just answer it 😂
And listen, I know why you do it.
You know the business. You have the context. You can make the decision in 30 seconds. You have a million ideas because you’re still genuinely excited about where this thing could go. And when you say you’re taking Friday off on Monday, you really do mean it.
Then Thursday night rolls around and suddenly you’re “just tying up a few loose ends” so you can actually relax tomorrow.
Sure, girl. 😂
None of this means your business is a mess or you secretly hate being a CEO. Quite the opposite. You’re probably really fu***ng good at what you do.
Which is exactly how you ended up becoming the easiest person to ask.
So no, I’m not here to diagnose you with burnout or tell you to burn the whole thing down.
I just need to know which toxic little CEO habit we’re working with. 👀
A, B, C, D… or are we unfortunately an E?
