Here's what that looks like in practice.
So, you know, I had been saying for three years that I was going to write a book about buying businesses.
I had a Google Doc.
I had like three, I think, chapter outlines, a folder of research, but I'd written nothing.
I remember one morning I was pouring coffee in the kitchen.
Sun's not really up.
I can't sleep.
My little dog goes at my feet.
And the thought arrives, I should work on the book today.
I've just kind of tightened at it.
Like my hand was like, ah, there's probably other things.
And so move one, shrink.
I was like, well, I'm not going to write the book today.
I am writing one sentence.
And that one sentence I wrote.
Move two, specify.
I sat at the kitchen table at like, I don't know, 5.15, 6.15 a.m.
And I set a five minute timer to write one sentence.
It's crazy as 40 minutes later, I had, you know, a couple pages.
I didn't plan on that, but the rest of the work comes because the door is staying open.
