Last week we talked about how doing one thing deeply beats doing five things in parallel.
This week: how do you choose what matters, when family, work, and life are all yelling for attention?
The 3×3 Monthly Reset (what I use)
Every month, I try to set:
3 Personal Priorities (e.g., exercise 20 min, read 30 min, 3-min cold shower)
3 Business Commitments (e.g., 30 min content creation, 30 min learning, 30 min deep work)
I don’t hit 100%, but this keeps me honest and moving forward.
How to try it: the day before a new month, pick your 3 + 3. Put them on your calendar (recurring reminders help). Done.
The Daily Backup Plan (when monthly feels heavy)
Turn your to-do list into a success list:
Brain-dump everything you could do.
Cross out all the “coulds.”
What’s left are the essential “shoulds” that’s your success list for today.
Do the top one first. Only then earn the right to do #2.
Tip: if you’re unsure, ask “What’s the one thing that, if done, makes everything else easier or unnecessary?”
Idea from the “One Thing”
Action Plan (pick one)
Set your 3×3 for next month (3 personal + 3 business), or
Do the success list trick today and complete one must-do.
