In our random thoughts we talk all about drinking each other’s blood. Thanks, Megan Fox and MGK. That part isn't transcribed. 


HERE’S THE REST OF THE PODCAST THOUGH.

So, this is going to be a short podcast because we’re going to give you some super simple advice this week. Ready?


BLOW OFF YOUR PHONE


Your phone rings? You don’t recognize the phone number? Don’t answer it.


Seriously.


Every single time your phone rings and it’s not a number you know, it means it could be a spammer wasting your time.


More than that though, each of those calls in an interruption that you aren’t expecting and you aren’t wanting. Even if it’s someone awesome, you aren’t in a position to deal with that call to the best of your ability.


Make them leave a message.


If it’s important, they will.


CHECK OUR EMAILS TWO OR THREE TIMES A DAY, NOT AN HOUR


The same thing goes for email programs. Don’t check it all the time. It’s a distraction. Yes, sometimes the emails are super important, but most of the time it’s Texas Tamales telling you that you have only twenty-four hours left to get a fantastic deal that includes queso.


You have to prioritize your to-do list and your time. For that reason, don’t check that email first thing in the morning either. Get something else that is super important done.


DOG TIP FOR LIFE

Constant distractions make you lose your goal.


SHOUT OUT!

The music we’ve clipped and shortened in this podcast is awesome and is made available through the Creative Commons License.


Here’s a link to that and the artist’s website. Who is this artist and what is this song?  It’s “Summer Spliff” by Broke For Free.


AND we are transitioning to a new writer podcast called WRITE BETTER NOW! You’ll be able to check it out here starting in 2022!
