Hey Reader,

Being an entrepreneur is largely a game of survival. If you can stay on the treadmill long enough, you win.

So, the best way to survive is to care for your health by designing your day around your health. Here’s how:

I schedule my health tasks and stick to them. I treat my health tasks as important as meeting a new customer.

Just like a meeting, I

  • Don’t adjust it often,
  • Make sure I’m on time,
  • Ensure nothing else is on my schedule

The time left over is available for work, relationships, and fun. This pushes me to be efficient with my time. Remember, “work expands to fill the time available for completion.” Here are my critical health tasks, aka non-negotiables:

  • Sleep 8 hours daily
  • Workout 4 - 6 days weekly
  • Eat healthy daily
  • Find a therapist & journal
  • Review your day and close it out
  • Take breaks throughout your day & relax every night
  • Meditate & go for walks
  • Have fun on the weekends
  • Spend time with friends & family

I map them on my calendar so I don't double-book myself.

It saves me time by reducing thinking, and it ensures I never double-book myself.

The time I block for my health is for me to take care of myself and, honestly, the best thing for my business. If I’m burned out, my business falls apart since I’m a one-man show.

Prioritize your health, and you’ll be able to survive anything!

Hey Reader, Missing a day isn't the bottleneck. What you do after the miss is. I know this because I lived it for years. I'd blow past a timebox, skip a task that was supposed to be done by noon, or miss one workout. And the second that happened, my brain made a choice: Either Overcompensate and grind for six hours straight to make up for it, Or flip the other way entirely: day's ruined, might as well do nothing. Typically, I fell into the former. I'd shame myself into pushing late into the...

Hey Reader, I'm finally launching my YouTube channel, so don't forget to check the video below. Tell me what you think! Most ADHD productivity advice fails for one simple reason: It removes pressure rather than creating it. When I was in college, I tried to fix my grades by giving myself unlimited time to study. No social life. No gym. Just open-ended workdays. Result? Three C’s in one semester. Why? Parkinson's law - "Work expands to fill the time available." More time means less urgency and...
