For me right now - saying NO rather than yes to everything is a lesson I’m learning the hard way. I have decided to be laser focused and stick with the main goals, everything else at this early stage (when it’s just me) is a distraction. Thanks Jas for your frankness and honesty. I feel right now I’m constantly learning things the hard way… good to know I’m not alone. X

Laser focused is always the best plan especially for work/life balance. Although it's often easier said than done! x

There are always new shiny ideas which come along! It is definitely something I feel will be a constant work in progress to be disciplined.

Definitely the point about taking the wrong advice resonates. I think it's also tricky because most of the time the advice isn't inherently bad - it's just not right for you in that moment, which is much more difficult to catch

Exactly this. I don't think people setting out to guide you badly, it's just like you say, it might just not be the right time and that's harder to spot. Completely agree.
