Episode notes
Prioritize Your North Star
- Prioritize tasks by the North Star: only do what only you can do and calendar accordingly.
- Treat this as a navigation point, not a perfect goal, and aim to spend your best energy on high-value work.
Maximize Strengths Over Fixing Weaknesses
- Your fully exploited strengths add more value than marginally improving weaknesses.
- Focus on where you uniquely contribute and delegate work others can do better.
Hand Off Your Calendar
- Give someone control of your calendar to create protective margin and force priority conversations.
- Use that partner to ask, "What are you going to stop doing?" whenever responsibilities shift.
