Distractions can quietly steal your time, energy, and focus—keeping you from the progress you want in your business. In this episode of How to Grow My Small Business, Lindsay Fletcher breaks down the five biggest distractions that entrepreneurs face, why they’re so dangerous, and how to overcome them so you can finally stay on track.

If you’ve ever found yourself scrolling social media in the name of “research” or getting stuck perfecting your website instead of selling your services, this one’s for you.

What you’ll learn in this episode:
  • The #1 distraction almost every entrepreneur falls into (and how Lindsay overcame it)

  • Why shiny object syndrome keeps you busy but not profitable

  • How over-planning can actually hold you back from taking real action

  • The danger of saying yes to every “should” and how to make decisions that align with your goals

  • How notifications and emails drain more time than you think—and what to do about it

  • Practical tips to remove distractions and build momentum in your business

Quote from the episode:

"Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. And what he can’t destroy, he will do his best to distract."
