Here's a tip: you talk to, email several people a day. For example, if you have a video, you can use the whole video or clips, you now also have access to just audio, you can transcribe what you have and that can be used for articles, blog posts, social media content and posts, and as a manual to go along with your course.

Appesia is a nice enough app, but not nice enough that it has changed the fact that my iPad isn’t a device I’m using for social media all that much anymore. Sure, I still have Tweetbot and Buffer installed on my iPad, but every other social networking app has been relegated to sparse use at best and uninstalled at worst.

Being able to remove contexts and ship projects in progress off to somewhere (or someone) else isn’t just liberating today – it frees you up to be liberated going forward.

Your slow brain would prefer that you check email on a schedule. If you take your time. If you slow down. Your slow brain is not getting enough stimuli for growth in this fast expectation world. It would be better served if you took some time to think about the responses you wished to craft before you sent them.
