Working Tools 39. Hey! Yay! Nay?

Today, I’m writing about the dance craze sweeping the nation. Only kidding. I’m still blethering on about e-mail. I have been trialing Hey [https://hey.com] for more than a week. I’ve read the manifesto [https://hey.com/the-hey-way/] (seriously, there is one), watched the 37 minute

Working Tools 38. E-mail Revisited

A huge attraction of going iOS-only, or iOS-first, is simplicity and focus. iPad can do all sorts of multi-tasking, but for me, works best as a single-focus device. Accepting that my corporate work is easier done on macOS than iOS, has redirected my thinking on workflows. E-mail I have three

[https://stuartlennon.com/going-solo-11-lime-training-and-consultancy-ltd/] It’s website was awful. Unloved, unmaintained and creaking under the weight of updates not completed. It had been designed, by someone else, using a plugin, that I don’t

Working Tools 32. Time Tracking

Time tracking is an absolute essential for the modern entrepreneur. Actually, no, it isn’t. You have stuff to do, do it. When you have finished, stop. Simples. If you bill by the hour or by the minute even, then keeping track of your time is a requirement. You need
