This is episode 61 of Bella in Your Business. Welcome to Bella in Your Business, where Bella will discuss anything and everything about your pet sitting business to help you land on target. So get ready, Bella’s got your chute. Let’s jump. Welcome, everybody, to another episode of Bella in Your Business. My name is Bella Vasta from Jump Consulting, and today I want you to listen up if you’ve been looking for some practical principles to help you maximize your time, minimize your stress, and break that God-forsaken procrastination habit. My guest, Eric Twiggs, has helped over 28,000 people accomplish their goals, fulfill achievement, and stop procrastinating.
Bella: Eric, without further ado, welcome to the show.
Eric: Hey, Bella, thank you for having me. Glad to be here.
Bella: Thank you so much. This is definitely a topic that we haven’t had in our 60-plus episodes, so I’m so excited for you to just rock it on this topic and tell us everything you know and give us some good actionable things that we can just start doing today. Because I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who hasn’t said, “Oh no, I don’t procrastinate at all.” I think we all do, right?

We were good friends though, and everything changed in one moment when I hadn’t heard from him in a week or so, and I got a phone call from his mother telling me that he had tragically passed away in a car accident. That changed everything for me as far as how I view time, and I really started to become more intentional as far as how I spend my time.
Through a lot of my experiences—in the book, I talk about having 28,000 coaching sessions. I’ve had an eight-year span where I did 12 to 15 sessions a day, back-to-back, on the half-hour. That’s how I got to 28,000 coaching sessions. I’ve also been an executive where I’ve had as many as 500 employees working for me at any given t...
