Helping nonprofit folks lead with less stress and more clarity
I wrapped up my time at Verse a few weeks ago and I’m taking some time to figure out what’s next. I’m especially interested in human rights and climate action, and I’d love to help out at a nonprofit or mission-driven org—places like ACLU, Amnesty International, Sierra Club, 350.org, or others doing meaningful work. Whether it’s coaching leaders or making process improvements, I love helping nonprofits to make things run more smoothly so they can focus more on their mission. If you're at a nonprofit of any sort, let's chat. And if you know someone doing this kind of work, I’d really appreciate an intro or a share. Thanks!
I’m not sure I completely agree that ClickUp has this right. Work is broken? Maybe. Probably. But “app-switching fragments work, steals time, and kills productivity”? I’m not sure about that. I get a lot more work done when I don’t have Mail or Slack open. Having them integrated in a single app seems like *more* of a productivity killer than switching between apps. This is one of the nice things about Nostr, actually. I *want* to switch between a variety of smaller, more focused apps to do specific things. View quoted note →
Another email with this phrase: “we apologise for any inconvenience”. Don’t apologize for _any_ inconvenience — just acknowledge that this _is_ inconvenient and say you’re sorry! (I don’t actually care about my book coming late — I just care about good customer service, and this email missed the mark.)
Sunsama is great. I’m not sure why I never planned my days before, but now that I am, it’s awesome. I feel like I can actually get the important things done and forget the rest (until tomorrow, or next week, or whenever). Give it a shot if you feel like you’re constantly reacting to things that aren’t as important as the things you really need to do. Hat tip to @Matt Lorentz for introducing me to it!
