#143: Stop Doing More in Your Restaurant and Do the Right Things Instead

February 4, 2026 by David Scott Peters

If you’ve ever started a year full of optimism only to find yourself buried under half-finished projects and mounting stress, this one is for you.

In this episode of “The Restaurant Prosperity Formula” podcast, I dig into why so many restaurant owners feel overwhelmed despite working harder than ever — and why the real issue isn’t a lack of effort, but a lack of clear decisions.

This episode walks through a practical way to cut through the noise, decide what actually matters right now and regain traction. Listeners can expect to learn how to distinguish urgency from importance, why too many priorities stall progress and how focusing on the right work — at the right time — creates momentum, calm leadership and real results.
