Most people just need to stop reading those articles and just start taking action. If you need to put in alot of hours one week to make things happen, then do it. If you can't, then take a break and reassess where your time/effort is being spent and then determine if you are cut out for it...or if you need to completely change your process to make it work better for you. Running a business, esp if it's your first go at it, isn't going to be easy and why most people aren't cut out for it. When shit hits, it tends to hit all at once from multiple directions. If you are able to grind through those tough times and learn from them, you will become more efficient at decisions and thus decrease your hours spent. How does the quote go - "Calm waters never made a good sailor."
