1064 My3Things And You – EP 1064
This week, we’re digging into something that’s helped a lot of folks — including me — actually make progress: #my3things. Around here, it started as a simple habit. Write down three things. Do them. Rinse and repeat. Turns out, that’s enough to change your whole trajectory. I’ll share how it’s helped me stay focused while we expand the Holler Homestead, plus read some thoughts from listeners who’ve made it part of their daily rhythm. Also on deck: a green bean canning marathon, why my kitchen looks like a tornado hit it, the story behind my new (super cheap) workstation, and how Basecamp is turning into a legit lodge.
