One last thought from a great afternoon chat.
Shattered, Bywater, New Orleans, Louisiana
Eddie and I chatted for three hours yesterday about tacit knowledge, life hacks, heuristics, spiral dynamics and how we explore cities, cultures, ideas and awesomeness. A much-needed chat. And just as importantly, a chat that left with me one over-riding thought:
“Doing is more fun, valuable and meaningful than just knowing.”
One thought, a guide to many hard choices up ahead.
What’s your daily routine to keep you on course?

What do you do every day to focus your efforts, accomplish your short-term goals and keep you working toward your long term goals?
Write them down is popular. I do that. Kinda. You see, while I’ve always maintained hand-written lists of to-dos and short-term goals, writing down the long-term goals tends to slip my mind.
Fast forward to today. “Do less” popped into my mind while sitting in Union Square. Chris and I spent a while talking about how we manage daily tasks and long term goals. Colleen wrote about her new morning ritual, a combination of writing down long-term and daily goals (with checkboxes). And deep in my inbox, a reminder from a great, observant, thoughtful person popped out at me about daily goal-writing and realization exercises.
I’m going to sleep in tomorrow. But now I know the first thing I need to do when I wake up.
What are you going to do?
