I help people get more out of their notes and ideas.
Taste is having the conviction to say something the LLM wouldn't.

Most people don't plan their week.

They triage it.

It's a game of volume. The things that matter most lose every time.

Designing a week works differently:

→ Start with a blank grid.
→ Decide what shape the week should hold.
→ Protect that shape before any specific task or meeting gets in.

The weekly calendar template gives you structure and helps you protect time for what really matters.

I built a free tool to make this easier: https://idealweek.practicalpkm.com

Latest video is going crazy 🎉 It only took 102 videos to get there 😂

I don't mind though. I tell people all the time that quantity is the path to quality. You have to ship enough to learn what that looks like.

If you're frustrated by a lack of results, just keep shipping!
