Have someone to report back to about your progress (accountability)
[15:25] – Procrastination
[22:25] – Q & A
[22:57] – I’m impatient and my focus is always spread among various areas. I always take on multiple new habits, but never notice because of the distance between these areas (I.e. I’ll take on a new fitness habit, but not notice that I’m also trying to take on a new time management and consistent drawing habit). I always bite off more than I can chew and suffer for it later. This has always been my challenge and I’d like to be a bit more intentional towards it. —Elliot
[27:50] – How do you personally go about recording the duration of time each of the actions you undertake requires? I often underestimate the amount of time that something will take and get into issues because of this. —Elliot
[30:05] – I’ve been struggling my way toward one, very unclear goal over the past couple of years (to make a business out of the illustrations I draw). I notice that I’ve been stubborn about “how” I’m going to do it and have been blinding myself to other options and possibilities. I believe this happened because I haven’t remained vigilant in reviewing my progression consistently- just pushing forward with the blinders on, making no real progress. What sort of processes for self-review have you implemented into your personal process? —Elliot
[36:10] – Since it’s planning season, I was wondering if you could share how you and your team go about monthly planning, and how much time do you spend on it? —Justin
[39:30] – I was wondering if could share your writing process. How do you incubate your ideas, and how do you decide it’s good enough to be sent off for publishing? When you finish up a draft, do you tend to publish it while it’s fresh, or you let it sit for a while? —Justin
[42:42] – When you are running a small business and you are the EVERYTHING person, what are your key tips for prioritizing things when you only have so many hours but multiple tasks to achieve each day? How do you stay focussed on what is REALLY important and not get distracted with the little things? —Christine
