tl;dr:(1) Focus on one big thing: Your one big thing is usually important but not urgent. You should do your one big thing as early as possible every day. (2) Manage your energy: Before noon, I do tasks that require critical thinking like writing and making important decisions at work. In the afternoon, I do tasks that require less mental energy like sharing product updates or consuming content. (3) Ask to discuss async. Peter's favorite response when someone asks to meet is: "can we discuss async first?" And more.
