Finding yourself wasting precious hours scrolling through Facebook groups, comparing your TPT store to others, or stressing about platform changes that are completely outside your control? You're not alone. The TPT seller community is filled with noise that can easily derail your focus and drain your limited energy reserves.
In this no-nonsense episode, I tackle the five most common distractions that prevent teacher-entrepreneurs from making meaningful progress in their businesses. From the dangerous trap of fixating on other sellers' earnings to the false promise of "quick hacks" that claim to transform your business overnight, I break down why these distractions are so harmful and how to put your blinders on to stay focused on what truly matters.
We dive deep into why copying someone else's successful strategy rarely works (hint: it's like being that awkward kid repeating jokes at the lunch table hoping for the same laughs), how comparing business expenses with other sellers can lead to poor financial decisions, and why engaging in negative conversations about TPT platform issues only wastes your valuable time and mental energy.
As teachers juggling classrooms, families, and side businesses, our energy is our most precious resource. This episode provides practical guidance for protecting that energy and channeling it into activities that will actually move your business forward in meaningful ways. Whether you're just starting out or looking to scale your existing TPT business, these insights will help you build a more purposeful and sustainable teacher business without the distractions.
