By that I mean what are some powerful and simple basic applied techniques or behaviors that are really useful you’ve developed or discovered in your life that makes things work or improve.

Lets keep them simple and powerful 🧙‍♂️

Let people on the phone know that you don’t mind if something is taking a bit longer and that you’re cool and with them whatever happens. Say something like, its okay I’m not in a rush ☺️

They’ll appreciate taking some of the pressure off and showing you are a receptive audience (you’re rooting for them) and I’ve found it to get superior outcomes since I started doing it, even tho I was always generally polite previously

    Keep things actionable.

    • Things you need go where they are useful or where their presence is a reminder not to forget them.
    • When relaying things, it doesn’t need a story if the story isn’t actionable.
    • When planning things, plan out the actions, and leave as much of the rest to the experience as you can, lest you get overwhelmed, frozen, and wind up with no plans.

      Key and wallet discipline. Made me appreciate the benefits of a sacred place for those ‘emergency’ aka “Just Go” items.

      …and no, I didn’t increase my pants’ pocket sizes to justify more clutter at these places…

        For me, I make things like key and wallet discipline a muscle memory. I literally practiced putting my keys where they belonged like it was some sort of challenging skill to learn. As a consequence when I put my keys down without thinking as normal, they always end up where they belong.
