As founders and makers, do you take care of your mental health?
I control every 1 hr of my day to maximize productivity. Wake up at 5:30, meditate, work, learn programming, work some more, write a novel, and run a family with 1 kid coming. You could say I'm hyper productive, but I know many of you have a lot more on your plate. As founders and makers, what do you do to make sure your sanity is kept in check?
What do you honestly think of asynchronous communication?
In our traditional work world, we're used to meetings (video or not) where we all attend at the same time. However, in our new remote work world, asynchronous communication is taking hold. This happens when information is shared and people can respond and collaborate on their own time. (Here is an example: https://app.weet.co/play/707395d... ) Does sharing information asynchronously appeal to you? Do you like the idea of sharing info and waiting a few hours (or a day) for responses in exchange for the convenience of responding on your own time? Do you like the idea of not having to respond instantly? Do you think it's beneficial to have more time to "think on" big decisions and have more clarity before moving forward? I'm curious to know how readily you would adopt asynchronous communication. Any insights would be helpful
