When you get to make your own hours, what business tasks do you actually enjoy doing vs. the ones you dread?
Topic summary
The discussion explores which business tasks entrepreneurs enjoy versus those they find burdensome when setting their own schedules.
Preferred tasks:
- Product development and building — one participant identifies as a “builder at heart” who finds deep satisfaction in hands-on creation work
- Customer interactions and feedback gathering — engaging directly with users to improve products or store content
Dreaded tasks:
- Sales and networking activities — meeting new people is mentioned as particularly unpleasant
Emerging pattern:
Participants gravitate toward creative, technical work over client-facing responsibilities. One contributor is considering delegating non-building tasks entirely, suggesting a common desire to focus exclusively on core competencies while outsourcing less enjoyable operational duties.

Sales and meeting people 
ugh
I’m a builder at heart, so I truly enjoy crafting and building the product itself, the kind of work that happily tires me out for countless hours. I might hire someone someday for everything else.

I prefer chatting with customers and getting feedback on product or store contents.
