I dive into the tricky balance between work and rest that many indie makers face. I share my personal journey and talk about the constant pressure to work long hours and the feelings of dissatisfaction that can arise in both 9-to-5 jobs and startups. I emphasize the importance of finding fulfillment and suggest that entrepreneurs should delegate tasks and hire help to free up personal time. I share stories, including one about my friend Alex, to highlight the common struggles and offer practical advice for achieving a healthier work-life balance.Mentions"Tiago's Twitter (X)": "00:01:41""Podsqueeze.com": "00:14:10""RankChase.com": "00:17:26""ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds)": "00:23:28""SEO Audits": "00:25:53""Email Automation": "00:25:53"Timestamps by PodSqueezeIntroduction to the Dilemma (00:00:10)  Tiago introduces the episode's main topic: the entrepreneur's dilemma of balancing work and rest.Personal Journey as an Entrepreneur (00:02:57)  Tiago reflects on his fulfilling experience as a full-time entrepreneur over the past few years.Conversations with Friends (00:04:20)  He shares insights from a conversation with his friend Alex about work fulfillment and dissatisfaction.Struggles with Work-Life Balance (00:05:23)  Tiago discusses the ongoing struggle between work satisfaction and the need for personal life.Optimizing Time for Productivity (00:09:51)  He compares entrepreneurship to being a top athlete, emphasizing the need to optimize time and routines.Realization of Duality in Work (00:11:59)  Tiago reflects on his desire for personal time versus the pressure to keep working.Phases of Entrepreneurship (00:15:17)  He outlines the two phases of entrepreneurship: exploration and augmentation, and their significance.The Importance of Delegation (00:19:49)  Tiago suggests raising money to delegate tasks, allowing more time for strategic work.Wealth Inequality Insights (00:20:50)  He discusses wealth inequality and how it relates to work hours versus productivity.Conclusion on Time and Investment (00:24:41)  Tiago concludes that investing money in delegation is key, rather than sacrificing personal time for work.The Importance of Delegation (00:25:53)  Tiago discusses the value of delegating tasks to save time for personal pursuits.  Reflection on Hiring Professionals (00:26:20)  He shares his experience of hiring a professional for SEO audits, which significantly improved efficiency.  Conclusion on Work-Life Balance (00:27:01)  Tiago concludes that delegating tasks allows him to rest and manage his business effectively.  Future Plans and Closing Remarks (00:27:30)  He plans to test his delegation theory and invites listeners to follow his journey.
