Episode notes

The insight highlights three key practices for effective time management: 1) Increase creation time and avoid multitasking. 2) Allocate mental windows for consumption and ideation into your week. 3) Engage in mental time travel by vividly imagining the past and the future. The speaker suggests exercises such as considering one's definition of 'enough' in the past and present, reflecting on actions that could lead to a successful future, and envisioning an ideal day in the future. Mental time travel is a valuable tool for both professional and personal life.

Welcome to the final episode of 2023. For the second year in a row, I sent out over 100 newsletters to my subscribers—two per week, every single week.

The newsletter (and corresponding podcast) is all about ideas—actionable ideas to help you build a high-performing, healthy, wealthy life.

I shared thousands of ideas here this year. My 10 favorites (the top 1% of ideas from 2023): The Surfer Mentality, the 4 Types of Luck, the Parable of the Two Arrows, the 4 Types of Professional Time, Mental Time Travel, ABC Goals, the Spotlight Effect, the Think Day, Grayscale Mode, and the Time Billionaire.
