When to use it

Use it when your days feel busy but nothing meaningful gets done.

How to apply it
  1. Each morning or the night before, choose one highlight for the day.
  2. Pick something that takes roughly 60 to 90 minutes.
  3. Schedule a specific time for it in your calendar.
  4. Remove distractions during that time.
  5. Reflect briefly at the end of the day and adjust tomorrow's choice.
Tip: A highlight can be urgent, satisfying or simply enjoyable; it does not have to be work.
