How to Take Control of Your Time and Be Done By Noon | Dave Ruel

Many times, entrepreneurs lose control of their time and energy, making burnout inevitable. This often results in many missed opportunities in the business or focusing on the wrong things, and you just come to this point where you realize you’re on a totally different path from the original vision you intended in the first place. Today I am joined by Dave Ruel, a former competitive physique athlete turned serial entrepreneur, author, international speaker, and leadership mentor, to share his learnings and insights in refusing to conform to a broken business culture that promotes workaholism and non-stop hustle with his book, “Done By Noon”. Let’s welcome the CEO of Effic, Dave Ruel, everybody!
