But at the moment it's going to frustrate the hell out of you. Acknowledge it and go "I'm not getting this! I'm not achieving what I want to achieve right now!"

Tomorrow.

I'll make another choice tomorrow.
I'Il look [at it] another way."

One of my biggest investements in 2023 was in email.

@hailleymari and I talked about this on MWW47, and then as I was writing this piece I realised I get on average a 100 messages a day across email, slack, whatsapp, messenger and text 😵‍💫

Even when the urgent is good, the good can keep you from your best, keep you from your unique contribution, if you let it”
– Elizabeth Emens, Life Admin

This book recommendation came to us from listener Brittany, and we discuss it on MWW45 🎧
