Hej entrepreneurs of reddit, I need your help.

I am a mid 20s entrepreneur and kinda succesfull by my own standards. (7 figure / annum - revenue)

But I struggle a lot with laziness by which I mean not working as hard or concentrated as I can. Well I would say I currently not really work more than 20-30h per week in total.

Thanks to my amazing team the business is still growing good and we are well on track to reach our goals this year again with a good 30% growth. What I want to say is, the business is running good.

I still feel like I could do so much more. This makes me feel bad because everyone else in my team does an amazing job, so I kinda let them down.

The thing is I love entrepreneurship to my heart, it’s the thing that always keeps me in a good mood. I love the people I do business with and all my employees. I also love creating value for other people and improving the lives of all the people in my life.

And then I read a lot on this subreddit and some people say “Well being lazy is good it helps you to learn outsourcing …”

Yes and I outsourced nearly everything, now I just have time to do the stuff I want to do, but I lack any motivation to do so. Most of the days I lay in bed and scroll tiktok or instagram and when a mail or call comes in I answer and then go back to scrolling. I feel like my life has gotten too easy and this led to me losing my drive. And as a person with many skills losing your drive is really one of the worst things that can happen in my opinion.

So if any other of you could offer some piece of advice how I stop being a lazy blob, I would love to get some information.

    Haha suffering from the passive income success.

    Why not just build another company, outsource everything there as well. Then get lazy again but now you have two businesses and then repeat the cycle until you get so many calls that you can’t scroll tiktok anymore.

    Gotta be proactive;)

    I’d suggest finding something else you find interesting that you can put your time into, such as another business etc. Working towards something is the only way to stop laziness imo

    I am in the same situation as you. Everything works fine but I don’t found the motivation to do more. So now I try to spend my energy in some side project/business.
