What's the best work hack you've devised? I'll start; one of my favorites is (at least) one day a week with no meetings.

- No meetings before 11am. - No meetings when emails or calls will do. - Don’t schedule calls, text coordinate them on the fly when possible. - Cram all meetings into two days a week. - 1-on-1s are usually 30-minute walking meetings. (Meetings are the death of productivity)

- Delete emails w/o responding or flinching. - Don’t set up voicemail. - Don’t travel purely for business. - Don’t go to conferences unless speaking. - Eat dinner with friends or family. - Use blocks of open time to create, make good decisions, & focus on important over urgent.

these are amazing. i literally do everyone of these. fuck email entirely. the only think i'd add is PERMANENTLY leave your phone on Do Not Disturb. no incoming calls or notifications ever. phone is reactive only.

Open a stopwatch every time you open Gmail. Think "running intervals", but for productivity. Get in. Get out. Work fast.
