Jerry Seinfeld’s Productivity Secret

There is one really important thing that needs to be brought-up: Being consistent is important. But it is more important to choose the right things to be consistent at.

Some of us are really consistent at watching our favorite sitcom. But how, exactly, does that help our businesses? Couldn't those precious minutes be spent doing something to help advance our businesses?

Here's us committing to an average of one User-Visible Improvement to our startup per day:

It's not quite the same as the Seinfeld calendar strategy in that we can in fact break the chain, we're just forced to maintain 1/day as an average.

(Anyone reading this thread who wants to try something like that, use the invite code SEINFELD and I'll get you hooked up.)

Suggestion: Swap the two. Exercise first.
