The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

the next, you know, year or two years are basically going to define the companies that are successful for the next decade, probably, right?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

If not more.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

So basically, I mean, I can break down the whole document.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

So at the top, it basically has like the couple things that I want to remember, right?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

You know, kind of like motivational things.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

some of the ones that i care about the most are prioritization like this is something i think people have a really hard time with is every you know like three to six months you have to completely redo how you do prioritization as a leader i think um and if you don't you're really going to start messing things up and then it has the top three documents that i care about tracking

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

um and so you know if i'm concerned about a certain part of the org then it will have you know like a revenue tracker if i'm super concerned about like uh post sales or we need to do much better like customer service on the back things like that it'll have a document there that has like a bunch of stats on that right and then under that it'll have what are the three goals for the quarter and almost always it's usually like one higher

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

uh like one product feature i mean we ship now we're getting to the point we're shipping like four new products every quarter um which is awesome but you know the one i care about the most or i need to focus on the most and then like one major area of the company i need to fix and then after that it will have my daily list and i think the the thing that's good about it like all the company dashboard stuff and motivation like i think everyone has their version of that

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

The thing that I think is actually good is every day I rank everything I need to do.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

And so it's daily and then I refresh it and then I cross them out.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

And the re-ranking is I think really important because what I've found is the more times I click into that doc that's called the list and I re-rank something, the more I think about what I'm doing, like meta thought about my thoughts.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

And that is really good.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

That's when I'm prioritizing the best by far.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

That's when my schedule looks the best.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

That's when I'm performing the best is how many times do I click in that doc during the day?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

Because it will make me reorg something, put something in first place in bold and ignore everything else.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

So it's more of a prioritization like document.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

What do you say no to?

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

Most things.

The Knowledge Project
Winston Weinberg: Speed, Stress, and Better Decisions

And I think an increasing amount of things as the company goes on.
