Episode description

How do you build a great routine in your life as an entrepreneur? Is it possible to have a schedule that allows you to have flexibility, get things done, see your family—and is also efficient so that you're not working 80 hours a week? This episode is for all the hyper-efficiency and optimization geeks out there because I'm answering these questions and more. I've experimented with a lot of different methods and hacks over the years to get the most out of my day, and today I'm talking through the things I have tried. Listen in to hear what has worked to optimize my routine, what has not worked for me, and a quick and dirty overview of my current daily schedule. I also share why I almost always push back on phone call requests, what I'm doing to optimize efficiency in the long term, and why I make deep work blocks a priority to really dig into meaningful work every week.
