the anti-burnout plan for entrepreneur parents | 240
better. with Jerred Moon
In this episode, I break down a 4-part anti-burnout framework built specifically for entrepreneur-parents. If you’re building a business and raising a family at the same time, this isn’t about balance... it’s about designing a life that doesn’t break you. You can’t compartmentalize your way to presence. But you can protect your energy where it counts most. 🧩 The Big Idea: You’re not just managing time... you’re managing needs. When your core needs (connection, autonomy, and competence) go unmet, burnout creeps in. That doesn’t just affect your business... it erodes your...

info_outline🎙️ In this episode, I break down the 1-3-3-0 Planning Tool
My go-to strategy for eliminating overwhelm, crushing your quarterly goals, and actually staying focused. If you struggle to execute consistently or feel lost in your day-to-day, this single sheet of paper will change everything.
👉 Download the 1330 Template: https://better.biz/systems/1330
💡 What is the 1-3-3-0?
- 1 Goal: What you want to accomplish this quarter (e.g., revenue, growth, results).
- 3 Strategies: The major pillars that support the goal.
- 3 Tactics per Strategy: Concrete actions that support each strategy.
- 0 Excuses: You now have your roadmap — go execute it.
🧭 How It Works
- Top Half (Quarterly): Set your one main business goal, define your 3 strategies, and list 3 tactical actions under each strategy. Make your goal SMART: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Time-bound.
- Bottom Half (Monthly): Choose 1 tactic from each strategy and turn those into your 3 business goals for the month.
- Assign By Who and By When for each monthly goal to ensure clarity and delegation.
🗓️ Weekly Execution
- Plan only one week at a time — life happens. If you overplan, you’ll abandon the whole thing.
- Each week, choose the specific tasks needed to achieve your monthly goals.
- Focus on momentum — completing even 30% of this plan is better than no plan at all.
🏃♂️ Don’t Forget Your Personal Goals
- Set 3 personal process goals for the month (not outcome goals).
- Examples: “Train 5x per week” instead of “Get in shape,” or “1 date night per week” instead of “Be a better spouse.”
- Track weekly progress toward those personal goals just like you would in business.
📌 Real Talk
- Triple-your-business goals sound cool, but they’re not realistic for every quarter. Go small and specific so you can build momentum.
- The biggest reason you feel unfocused isn’t ADHD — it’s that your goals suck or your plan sucks.
- This tool fixes both. One page, full clarity.
