Wednesdays are a struggle for me. Typically, it’s an information overload day. I struggle to find a way to manage. Here’s what I’m doing:

1. Spend more time heads down in work. I pay for brain.fm, put on nice head phones, and go at my work.

2. Turn my phone off. I got rid of social media years ago, and I do my best not to look at my phone. My family and friends probably hope I pick it up more often than I do.

3. Write things down. The company I work at uses clickup.com. When I owe someone something, I make a clickup task for myself. I follow through by scheduling time to work on these clickups later.

There are things I wish I did more that I don’t do. I know why I don’t do it. I don’t schedule time for it. That’s on me.

There are only so many hours in a life. I don’t know how many hours I have left. I know I need to get better at using the ones I have. And like any form of prioritization, there are things that end up on the cutting room floor.

Life strategy is like business strategy. It’s all about what you don’t do.
