It's not really about productivity. It's not about time management. It's really just about look. And any given day we're lucky if we can't have one great moment where we have our peak attention and we use it well. And we're it's not going to happen every day, but if we have some intention around it, it can happen more often than not.
The notion with the highlight is, imagine it's the end of the day if someone asks you, What was the highlight of your day? What would you say? That's the anchor of everything. That's the core. That's the foundation. Things can sometimes be a mess outside of that. And you still feel really good about your days. You still feel really good about the way you're spending your energy. Mm. Today I've got two guests, Jake Knapp and John Zaratsky.
Jake and John are authors of two incredible books, Sprint and Make Time. With Sprint, they've helped more than three hundred teams design new products. and bring them to market, including teams at YouTube, Slack, Gusto, and One Medical.
