Description

What if the secret to getting more done was actually doing fewer things?



Charlie Gilkey joins me to discuss his first book, Start Finishing. It really will help you finish more projects more efficiently. We discuss the five-project rule, why personal projects count as part of that + how to escape the dopamine trap of endless to-do lists.



Plus, why flow states can be dangerous for people with limited energy + the brutal truth about how long creative projects actually take.



Look for more Author Interviews where experts share ideas to help your business.
