I optimize my day around energy. Early Morning: Finish the most important thing Late Morning: Creative work Early afternoon: Chores, email and phone calls Late afternoon: Nap and workout Evening: Learning and reading Prioritize in a way that generates momentum.

What I've learned from @tylercowen: 1. Do the most important things first in the day. 2. Estimate “most important” using a zero discount rate. 3. In the morning, focus on long term goals and don’t make exceptions. "The hours from 7 to 12 are your time to build for the future."

Here’s a brilliant insight from @nateliason: Procrastination is fine, you just want to keep it small and quick. Procrastination is a simple, easily understood process. It’s what you do when you’re not sure what to do next. Races are run in the turns, not on the straightaways.

Meetings destroy productivity. ”Meetings are indispensable when you don't want to do anything” — J.K. Galbraith "The best way to do nothing and to perpetuate inaction or ineffective action is to hold frequent and tedious meetings."
