How to Plow Through Work and Still Produce Quality
Two years ago CruiseSheet didn’t have individual informational pages for each cruise. Cruises are large purchases, though, so I thought that it would be much better if I could have a lot of written information, graphs, and pictures. With around 12,000 cruises on offer at any time, the selection changing every day, writing them individually…

Reflecting on Superhuman 2
Two weeks ago, ten people came to Las Vegas to participate in my event, Superhuman 2. When I did the first one a year earlier I was nervous about how everyone would get along and how I would fill the time in a useful way. This year, even with a much longer format, my only…

What I Learned Building a Cabin in the Woods
In 2017 I built a small cabin in the woods of Nova Scotia. I did almost none of the building, but did do most of the design of the cabin and am now doing the follow-up work on it. Building a cabin is shockingly cheap. It’s one of those situations where you get about 80%…

A Guide to Good Sleep
Sometimes I wonder if I’m annoying because I talk so much about good sleep, but even when I talk to readers about it, it seems like almost no one actually prioritizes and gets good sleep. This is amazing to me, as it’s actually a pretty pleasant and easy way to get a huge boost in…

Extended Travel in Relationships

Committment First Time Management
I’m usually not all that busy, at least in terms of items on my schedule. I have infinite things that I could do, but very few of them have to happen at specific times or on specific days. If I do have a commitment, though, I will be there exactly on time. An exceptional situation…

Would I Be a Nomad if I Had Kids?
People ask me all the time if I’d still be a nomad if I had kids, or they say that it’s impossible or difficult to be a nomad if you have kids. I want to answer the question, but I think there’s something even more important to talk about in relation to this. The short…

It or Nothing
Right now I’m writing every single day, averaging around 4000 words. I have a big batch of writing I want to do, and I’ve broken it up over 10 days. This sounds like a daunting task, but I find it dead simple to complete, primarily due to one tactic that I often use. I call…

Simulating Others
One of the most common errors I see amongst well-meaning people are errors of awareness. They’re people with the ability to influence and they only want to help, but they lack a fundamental awareness of how others will react. This is particularly unfortunate because their efforts go misguided and can harm rather than help. The…
