On this episode of the podcast, I spoke with Austin L Church. Austin is the author of children’s books and a consultant who loves helping people build businesses around the work that doesn’t feel like work to them. We spoke about theming, using physical tools to stay on track, keeping things simple and more. It was a great conversation that I think you’ll enjoy. Here are a few highlights from the show: Why it’s a great idea to give credit to others (a funny story) Using notecards How simplicity is a serious advantage Focusing on the right things at the right time Proactively ignoring certain things Managing complexity The importance of focusing and finishing Omission vs. elimination Why we overestimate what we can do in a day Overestimating urgency Abstractions and exceptions Creating durable plans Assigning weight to specific tasks based on the day and bigger goals Relevant Links Austin’s Website Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World Eat that Frog: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get Things Done in Less Time FOFI Cards Thanks for listening.
