Art of Manliness: how to make your life more effortless

The podcast (absolutely worth checking out)

When are you done? What does it mean to be “done”?

• think of the story of the ship Vasa

What is the next obvious step?

• What can you actually do in the next 2-3 seconds? What about 10 minutes?
• You don’t “do” a project. You do the next step.

Keep a sustainable pace.

• Set a lower bound – the minimum you should do
• Also set an upper bound – the maximum you’re allowed to do
• You can’t sustain an unsustainable pace. Think of the expeditions to the south pole. Amundsen was first and made it back. Scott didn’t.
