💡 MVD Minimum Viable Day
#Featuring the concept of Minimal Viable Day. In software startups, there’s a famous concept called the Minimal Viable Product (MVP). The idea is to release your product as soon as it meets the basic needs of its users. From there, you iterate to improve performance, embellish the design, and add new features. We can take this step further and build our work routine around it. I call it the Minimal Viable Day (MVD). An MVD is the minimum amount of productive work that makes your workday feel worthwhile. For example: - Write 800 words - Complete one report - Organize the finance spreadsheet 💡 The main purpose of an MVD is to be so easy it makes any excuse to procrastinate sound ridiculous. It’s just a way to trick yourself into doing tasks that build up over time. The most effective way to stick to your MVD is to turn it into a habit. The science of habit-forming boils down to four laws James Clear explained in his best-selling book—Atomic Habits #1 Make your MVD obvious With the MVD you can use a sheet of paper as a cue. Make it visible in your work setup. For example, mine rests on the left side of my laptop. I see it every time my gaze wanders away from my screen. #2 Make your MVD attractive How do you add anticipation to something that’s supposed to be a chore? Easy. You mix the tasks you need to do with things you enjoy doing. For instance, I only listen to music when I write, read, cook or walk. It’s like a tradeoff: I get to enjoy my favorite artists only when doing something productive. Steal the pattern and create bundles of tasks to create anticipation. Here are some examples: - Listen to a podcast when doing manual work - Call a friend when cooking or cleaning - Go to your favorite café when you have a ton of emails to process #3 Make your MVD easy (super easy) Reduce any friction that may keep you from ticking the boxes of your MVD. Examples: - If you want to increase your chances of going for a long walk, put your sports shoes next to the door - If you want to read before bed, put a book on your nightstand - If you want to cook healthy food, make sure you have a variety of ingredients in your fridge and recipes on your phone

Master the The Follow-Up
The Follow-Up: How to Turn Connections into Meaningful Business Relationships We’ve all been there—you attend a networking event, connect with some great people, and then…nothing. Why? Because networking without follow-up is just socializing. If you want to build a network that matters, you have to make follow-up a priority. Here’s how to do it effectively: 1. Follow Up Quickly Timing matters. Aim to follow up within 48 hours of meeting someone. Send a personalized message that references something specific from your conversation. This helps build a stronger connection and shows that you’re engaged and serious. 2. Provide Value Right Away In your follow-up message, offer value—this could be a resource, an introduction, or even a solution to a challenge they mentioned. The key is to position yourself as a trusted resource, not just another contact in their inbox. 3. Set the Next Step Don’t let the conversation end after the first follow-up. Suggest a clear next step, whether it’s a virtual coffee, a brainstorming session, or collaborating on a project. Keep the momentum going and move the relationship forward. 4. Stay Top of Mind You don’t need to follow up constantly, but you do need to stay in touch. Set reminders to check in every few weeks or months, depending on the relationship. The more consistently you show up, the more likely you’ll be remembered when opportunities arise. 5. Make it Personal Remember, networking is about relationships, not transactions. Keep your follow-ups personal and authentic. Show genuine interest in the person, not just what they can offer you. Building a strong network takes time, but when you master the art of follow-up, you turn initial connections into meaningful, long-lasting relationships.
