When we look back over the past 100 years, traditional commerce (and the culture it indirectly endorsed) was primarily curated by a single person’s point-of-view. Even when commerce moved online, to places like Amazon or Farfetch, retailers still controlled the types of things consumers purchased. Online commerce didn’t innovate a new shopping... See more

The more senior the designer, the more abstract the problem they should be solving.
To break it down more tangibly, let’s look at some examples of levels and appropriate responsibilities:
Designer Lvl 1: Design a form that lets people edit their profile. Pretty scoped—assumes there is a profile, and that the solution takes the shape of a form.

Focus on one big thing
I used to make long to-do lists and feel guilty about not completing them.
Now, I structure my to-do list as follows:
If I finish my one big thing, then my day is a success. To find it, I use this matrix:
The Eisenhower matrix
This matrix does have one flaw. From my... See more

Curators, Curators
It has become popular to say we live in the information age, and we need curation to help us sort through the mess. But thus far, the conversation around “curation” has been too focused on the content and not enough on the structure. We seem to have accepted the job of the curator as providing a product review, a list of links, a... See more

Focus is good. But so is following your enthusiasm.
All my most valuable work has happened when I wasn’t doing what I was “supposed” to be doing.
No easy answers here, but I do think enthusiasm is more important than most people realize, and should be taken more seriously.
Nathan Baschezx.comI think that greatness is best described as “invisibility.” Great writing is invisible. It might take you a minute or two to get into the flow, but once you’re reading it, you’re flowing through it and don’t even realize you are reading words.

Alright, let’s make some videos.
First, I think you should aim for two or more videos per day for the first few weeks until you get some hits . That might sound insane, but, it’ll give you a lot of data very quickly on what’s working and what isn’t, and you can slow it down to one video per day once you have a good backlog of... See more

Email GTD
The goal of the system is that the vast majority of emails don't get to you, because they don't need to.
You should only be responding to the very few emails per day that are important for you to take action on, and everything else should go to the relevant person.
To do that, everything needs to have a clear "place" it should go. The... See more
