Deep dives
Habit 1: Weekly Review for Impactful Progress
At the end of each week, take 10 minutes to review your week and honestly assess which activities had a significant impact toward your true goal. Identify the few things that moved the needle and made meaningful progress, while acknowledging the actions that were just marginally effective or counterproductive. By doing this, you can eliminate the wrong things and redesign your upcoming week to focus on the few activities that have a big upside toward your goals.
Habit 2: Review and Uncommit to Unnecessary Activities
Review your calendar on a weekly and monthly basis to identify pre-committed activities that don't contribute to your true goals. Apply the principle of essentialism by uncommitting from these low-impact tasks and focusing your future on activities that align with your top priorities. By reducing the number of commitments and setting higher standards, you can free up time and mental energy to focus on the activities that truly move the needle.
Habit 3: Optimize for the Week and Deep Work
Rather than optimizing for each day, optimize for the week by identifying the one, two, or three significant tasks that will have the biggest impact on your future self. By catching bigger fish and chunking your work into concentrated blocks of deep flow, you can achieve more meaningful results. Design your week for deep work, focusing on one type of task each day, to avoid task switching and to fully immerse yourself in the essential work that propels you forward.
