Hi ,
Over the last couple of emails, I talked about effectiveness vs. efficiency — and how to choose and prioritize the right thing.
Today, I want to add another layer:
Signal vs. noise.
Because let’s be honest — it’s not that we lack information.
It’s that we’re drowning in it.
Advice, ideas, opportunities, tools, messages, posts, pings…
There’s more noise than ever.
So the real skill isn’t knowing more — it’s being able to filter.
To sense the signal in the middle of all that static.
Let me give you a simple example:
Every day, we plan our day.
And what usually happens?
We spend the first 30–60 minutes “getting organized.”
Checking email.
Responding to DMs.
Tidying our to-do list.
Maybe even optimizing the calendar one more time.
But all of that?
That’s noise.
The signal is: What’s the one thing that will actually move the needle today?
And once that’s clear — the smartest move you can make is to start it immediately, while your energy is highest and your mind is sharp.
I’ve found that the earlier I lock into that signal — and take action on it — the smoother and more productive my entire day becomes.
It’s not about doing more.
It’s about doing less noise.
So here’s the pattern that’s emerging from these last few emails:
- First: focus on doing the right things (effectiveness).
- Then: do those things right (efficiency).
- Then: do them in the right order, one at a time (prioritization).
- And now: listen for the signal — and ignore the rest.
If you’re feeling foggy, scattered, or just can’t tell what’s signal and what’s noise anymore…
Let’s clear that up.
