At first, I didn’t like your Friday Entrepreneurs segments. Then you know what I did? I started reading them! Usually the Monday after it’s posted I will read it during my lunch break (like I am now) and I love it.

Her Post-It note advice sounds a lot like Getting things Done. Start with a “Project” and break it down to an Actionable item. Even if it’s a small action, you are still making progress to the ultimate goal.

Thanks for another great article, Ramit.
