Having the tools, you need to do your work should be as easy as everything else you do during the day. Life is hard enough already. We don’t need our tech adding more friction.

Life is already difficult enough. So what we try to do is make things simpler, easier, more comfortable for ourselves. And again, this should be exactly the same with your tech.

We should basically make things as simple as possible and easy to use and easy to maintain.

So we don't have that friction we do with everything else in our lives. Because we all have friction with our lives.

It doesn't matter who you are. We basically have issues, right? So we want to get rid of those issues. We want to fix those friction points. And again, the tech that you use should do the same.

So the tool and the software that you use should be easy to maintain. In fact, you shouldn't maintain it. You should maintain the data in it, the way you use it.

And how simple it is putting data into it and getting data out.

So, for instance, if you've got a CRM that you have to push buttons all over the place, are you ever going to use that data to find anything?

Probably not.

I've come across this many times. If you use a project management tool, are you pressing a lot of buttons to do the same thing?

Why do you need loads of tags? Why do you need loads of any, the features within it? You don't need to use all those features, like I said before.

So choosing the right tools, as I've said in the past, is very important.

But the way you use the tools, the kind of the way you manage the data in it is also important.

So making sure that the tools that you use and the tools that you have, if you get rid of the friction as in it's complicated, get rid of the friction as in I don't have to maintain it, then doing your work, helping your clients, running your business, business, it's going to be a lot more simpler.

So again, getting rid of that friction makes your life much easier, just like, as I said, in our everyday lives.

You know, I have a comfortable couch in the office because I wanted to sit there sometimes so I make myself comfortable.

So I got the tool to be able to do that. I don't have to maintain it because it just sits there. Is that a good example or bad example? I'm not sure...

Hey, Woof!?

Anyway, hopefully that helps. and I'll see you in the next video.

Ciao.

Bye.
