Notebooks are great for capturing ideas, but a well-managed to-do list is essential for productivity.

Once you've identified a problem, gather some friends to brainstorm potential solutions together, as collaboration can lead to more innovative ideas.

To ensure you're prioritizing the right tasks, keep a detailed journal of your daily activities, noting the impact of each task on your primary KPI. This will help you identify low-value work that may be creeping into your schedule.

Books can serve as a source of inspiration and guidance in navigating life's challenges.

Maintain a spreadsheet of ideas that could potentially move your primary KPI, focusing on two main activities: talking to users and building your product. These tasks are essential for converting users into customers and understanding your product's roadmap.

I started using a daily gratitude journal to help manage stress and recontextualize the ups and downs of entrepreneurship.

A good recipe for generating startup ideas is to start with a problem you've personally encountered, ideally one that you're in a unique position to see.

Focus on solving daily and weekly problems rather than monthly or yearly ones, as they tend to be more successful in the market.

When I see founders write things down in a notebook, I feel like those ideas are lost forever.
