Starting a startup on the side can't require herculean willpower from you or again it just won't be sustainable. We need to optimize to take the willpower stuff off your plate. By far the best method I've found for dealing with behavioral debt is to get rid of stuff entirely if doing that thing over and over every day won't eventually make you into the person you want to be.
Today is the first of a three part series on setting up an operating rhythm for building a startup while you've got a full-time job. We lay out a system to help you make serious progress in an hour a day. We focus on reflection - specifically, your lifestyle debt - in an attempt to free up an hour of your time for the startup work. A startup won't be sustainable if it's layered on top of everything you're doing now. So today, we find you a free hour.
