Really good topic here 88wayz. I can identify with a lot of this. There's lots of practical advice on routines and systems and all of it is valid.
One book I'd recommend to anyone at this stage is Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell. The core idea is that as a solo operator or small business owner your job isn't to get better at doing everything yourself. It's to systematically identify the tasks that don't require you and get them off your plate whether through automation, delegation or both.
It reframes the whole conversation from "how do I manage my time better" to "how do I stop being the bottleneck in my own business."
Worth a read if you haven't read it yet.
