A proposito di questo titolo

Welcome to the Do More by Doing Less podcast with Charles Alexander, the show for Small Business Owners, Start Ups, and Busy Folks!

This is not another productivity, hustle, and grind podcast.

I literally want you to do less.

Many of us are overwhelmed, frustrated, and need a break.

The good news is that we can accomplish much more than now.

Once we focus on the vital few, and prioritize things that make our lives and the lives of people around us better, we can “do more by doing less”.

This podcast is funny, simple, and has real-world stories.

The episodes alternate between my solo podcasts and guest podcasts.

In the solo episodes I share stories and frameworks from my experience in coaching small business owners and my own entrepreneurship endeavors. Oh, and any other story that can get a laugh while sticking to the theme of the podcast😊

In the guest podcasts, I will bring on other entrepreneurs who will share their expertise and discuss their own methods for doing more by doing less.

That’s it.

  • The Mistakes You Made When Starting, That You Carry With You
    Feb 17 2026
    Why do two-thirds of small businesses fail in the first few years?

    Show Summary:
    In this episode, I break down the three patterns I’ve seen since I started coaching in 2007 that quietly derail entrepreneurs and busy professionals. The stats say only about 30 percent make it long term. From my experience, the difference usually comes down to experience, confidence, and planning. These issues start early, but if left unchecked, they follow you forever. The good news is each one is fixable.

    Takeaways:
    • A lack of continued experience keeps people repeating the same mistakes year after year.
    • A lack of confidence often grows from not recognizing what you already know.
    • A lack of planning turns every week into reactive chaos instead of intentional progress.

    Action For You To Take:
    This week, do three simple things.
    First, identify one skill gap and commit to learning something specific about it.
    Second, write down ten things you already know how to do well to rebuild confidence.
    Third, spend ten minutes planning your week around one clear priority.

  • Daddy, Will You Read Me a Story? - Habits That Stick
    Feb 3 2026
    Ever end the day exhausted and still feel like the most important things got pushed to tomorrow?
    That sweet Lilly Bug:) She's always good for a lesson or two.

    Show Summary:
    In this episode, I talk about why burnout usually isn’t caused by doing the wrong things, but by trying to do everything. Using a simple bedtime story moment with my daughter Lilly, I explain how a few keystone habits can quietly create progress in both life and business, even on the most exhausting days. The focus is not intensity or hustle, but protecting what truly matters so everything else becomes easier or optional.

    Takeaways:
    • Burnout often comes from overloading yourself, not from poor effort or discipline.
    • Most real progress comes from just one or two keystone habits.
    • Consistency beats intensity when energy is limited.
    • Keystone habits quietly compound over time, even when they feel small in the moment.
    • Successful business owners protect a few critical behaviors instead of doing more.

    Action For You To Take:
    This week, identify just two keystone habits for your life or business. Protect them daily. Treat this as a one week experiment and see what improves when you stop trying to do everything. If you want help identifying and defending those habits with real accountability, that’s exactly what I do through Time Freedom Weekly coaching via video messaging.

  • Be Productive Without Being a Weirdo
    Jan 20 2026
    I've about reached my limit with #hustleculture. You can be productive without telling everyone how you are on a mission to change the world. Chill out for a minute and calm down:)

    Show Summary:
    In this episode, I explain why chasing big, ever changing goals often creates more stress than progress. Instead, I share a simpler approach. Design the week you actually want to live, then fit your priorities around it. Using a real client example, I show how building a balanced schedule across work, family, self care, faith, and relationships can create clarity and momentum without needing a perfect long term plan.

    Takeaways:
    • Massive goals can overwhelm and stall progress.
    • A well designed week is more powerful than a distant plan.
    • Scheduling life first reduces distraction and burnout.

    What You Should Do:
    This week, sketch your ideal week on paper. Block time for work, family, self care, and relationships first, then build everything else around it.
