Turn a dead meeting productive with three GROW questions and one clear decision.

Refuse to attend or hold any meeting whose agenda did not arrive 24 hours prior, no exceptions.

Daily remember you will die — clears priorities fast.

Call a friend with no reason once a month and suggest a meet within the next 12 hours.

Open the meeting with five minutes of silent reading of a written memo instead of slides.

Compress any project into one page: why, what, who, when, success looks like...

Decline any meeting without a written agenda — politely cancel and request one.

Convert a meeting transcript (60+ min) into decisions and action items in 2 minutes.

For every 3 important digital chats with someone, schedule one real meeting.

Document a list of your important digital accounts and who can access them if something happens to you — account chaos after death compounds grief.
