Leah Busque, founder and CEO of TaskRabbit, said that
focusing only on larger end goals can be overwhelming. Instead, she focuses on
each smaller step.
“I wake up every morning with a singular goal - to push my
company as far as I can that day. My company is dedicated to solving a pretty
huge problem, and it can be overwhelming to think of the magnitude of this
vision. My approach is to choose specific and actionable items to complete each
day to move us closer to these goals, and to encourage everyone on my team to
do the same. This keeps us on track for accomplishing the big picture,” Busque
says.
So, true to the mission of her company, she outsources
everything that's not vital - laundry, grocery shopping, house cleaning - to free
her up for the important stuff.
"Which brings me to my biggest productivity secret: I
love what I do. Knowing TaskRabbit is poised to revolutionise work as we know
it is like rocket fuel to me.”
