Episode notes
Finish Or Get Zero Value
- Many tasks give zero value unless fully completed, because partial progress often yields nothing measurable.
- Recognize when a project requires finishing rather than polishing to create actual value.
Write First, Perfect Later
- Do write messy first drafts and revise later instead of chasing perfection on the first pass.
- Show up and do the work regularly to turn bad pages into something publishable over time.
Show Up For People
- Do prioritize showing up to social interactions over trying to be perfect or 'ready.'
- A short imperfect call or visit still contributes to relationships and counts as actual presence.
