NTL 004: Something That’s Complicated, Difficult And You Don’t Do It Regularly
Jess and Jon get into Jess’s new job at the bakery, the history of bread, and brewing beer. After that they talk about what outcomes matter in side projects, how investment in skill development squares with producing value now, and how we can make things more efficient by finding activities that allow us to work two two different goals at the same time. They then break down their thinking about Checklists, SOPs, and mind maps, how these are used, and the kinds of information they’re best suited to organize. They also talk about some recent travels to the Cliffs of Moher, England, and Italy, cheap plane tickets, the cold of Ireland, and the heat of Miami.
