Great metric. Is this good for me? It's good to see a hint of philosophy in this. Makes it firmer, I think.
The fact that you said your favourite way to communicate is via email - that's unusual. I'm not sure I've met anybody who thinks that. Does it work? Or rather, did you?
The headphones one I find the hardest recently. I think you're right, but sometimes music and the occassional I don't have time to listen to this elsewhere podcast. However, I suspect never's a better long term strategy.
I think I'll finally cave for the notebook and a pen idea after reading this. I have a notebook at home at work, but not all the time. It's a good idea
"your favourite way to communicate is via email - that's unusual. I'm not sure I've met anybody who thinks that. Does it work? Or rather, did you?"
Yes, it absolutely works. I've found in my experience that when someone emails me, rather than replies via a comment, the quality of their reply is better, more thought out. It might be because it's 1-1 rather than 1 - everyone. I do get interesting comments on Substack, so I'm not knocking the conversations here, ,but personal email has always been the highest quality in my experience.
