And the moment you think of "capacity", you can actually think of ways to climb up the ladder where you have more capacity in a day.

And the moment you think of "capacity", you can actually think of ways to climb up the ladder where you have more capacity in a day.
Then, another idea: total focus time is the wrong metric. What matters is capacity: how many usable blocks you actually get.

Here's an idea: model your day in terms of three numbers! a) how often you're interrupted, b) how long to recover, c) how much unbroken time your work needs. Simulate a few hundred days and you can see where things break. Sometimes with just one more interruption per hour.

Ever have one of those days where you're "working" for 8 hours but get absolutely nothing done?
Here's what that looks like vs. a day where things actually work out. Same 8 hours. I got curious enough to model why.

there’s nothing quite like opening the door to your hotel room for the first time is there. the gentle, calm euphoria of glimpsing this magical room you get to live in but don’t have to clean or maintain. the little thrill of seeing the bed you get to eat in without consequences
