Achieving big things, and pizza

As I covered in last week’s Productoon:

Ever get to the end of a week and think to yourself…

“Man, I worked hard every day but…what did I even get done?”

The feeling of “literally where did the time go” and “at this rate things will take forever, and I don’t have forever” is not uncommon.

You’re not alone: I’ve talked to a lot of creators over the past couple of decades, and this feeling is normal… and it’s getting worse:

• Instagram’s full of ‘alphas’ in ‘lamboz’.
• Twitter’s full of threads about how 2yos are becoming trillionaires.
• LinkedIn’s full of humble-brags in navy blazers.
• “Oh man, maybe I should be doing more of __!”

Stop. Hey, come back to me. Focus.

Listen: Eating three uncut pizzas at once is gross.

You’re not an animal. Select a pizza. Slice it up. Then eat 1–2 slices a day during mealtimes.

If you’re going to ship all of the amazing projects trapped inside you, eat work like you eat pizza in polite company.
