Episode notes
Split Writing By Format, Not Just Time
- Separate different writing formats into distinct time blocks (ads, long‑form, newsletters).
- Treat each format as its own mode to avoid heavy context switching.
Be Decisive When Booking To Control Your Calendar
- Proactively schedule and be decisive when booking meetings so you can batch calls.
- Reschedule scattered meetings to create concentrated 'call mode' blocks.
Always Name What You’ll Give Up
- When you add a new goal, explicitly decide what you'll give up to make room for it.
- Replace or drop existing commitments rather than expecting extra time to appear.
