Problem-solving

Canvas

Pay attention to how you work, not just what you work on — you might uncover a better workflow hiding in plain sight.

Repeat

Repetition isn’t redundancy—it’s the craft of making ideas stick, and the discipline of carrying them until they do.

Mountain

A mountain of work. No shortcut. Just the slow, steady rhythm of sorting, shaping, moving forward — one thing at a time.

Autonomy

Leadership isn’t about micromanaging — or letting people do whatever they want. It’s about freedom, framed by vision, shaped by the edges that matter most.

Inverse

Sometimes the best way to solve a problem isn’t to ask how to fix it — but how to make it worse. Flip the question. Then do the opposite.

Fog

There’s no waiting for the fog to fade. The act of moving is what carves the road. The risk, the stumble, the forward step — that’s what makes the way visible.

Spirit

Great work doesn’t start with a perfect file. It starts with knowing what you’re trying to bring to life — and protecting that spirit, no matter how messy it gets.

Right now

You don’t need a perfect calendar to know what matters. You just need to decide what’s most important — right now — and give it your full attention.

The hardest part isn’t always the number of decisions. It’s the pressure — the weight of trying to make the right one.

Reps

You don’t need to add hours to get better. You just need to notice the reps you already do. Same work. Sharper reps.

Onions

Onion problems aren’t hard because they’re unknown. They’re hard because of volume and tedium. The only way through? Start chopping.

Tech debt

Tech debt isn’t something to resent—it’s a receipt. A sign that something got made. That progress happened. Now it’s your turn to move it forward.

Days left

Before you build the plan—count the days. Real days. The ones you can actually work with. It’s simpler than it sounds. And more sobering than you’d expect.

Catch up

Coming back from PTO doesn’t have to mean inbox chaos. I’ve developed a system that works with how my mind moves—so I can catch up with calm, not overwhelm.
