ADVICE

Build A Flexible Daily Routine

  • Try to develop a routine when you transition to freelancing or writing full-time to preserve productivity.
  • Keep the routine flexible so it helps rather than blocks creativity.
INSIGHT

Schedule Around Your Peak Hours

  • Identify when your brain works best and schedule deep work in that window for maximum output.
  • Use lower-energy periods for reading, research, or lighter tasks to preserve peak focus.
ADVICE

Use A Three-By-Three Daily Framework

  • Use a simple rule like Oliver Burkeman's 3-3-3: three hours on your main project, three short tasks, three maintenance activities.
  • Limit choices each day to reduce decision paralysis and focus effort.
