Treat your week like a system

Travel introduces variability. Your job is to design a week that still works when you are tired, delayed, or in a new time zone.

Meeting hygiene

A useful default is fewer, better meetings. Batch calls. Use a single “meeting day” when possible. Protect at least two deep-work blocks each week.

Your time zone policy

Pick an anchor time zone for your work. Publish it. If you do not, you will constantly negotiate schedules and lose energy.

Delivery rhythms

Plan work in small deliverables that can ship even when you lose a day. Prefer checklists and definitions of done over vibes.

What to avoid

Do not plan weeks that require perfect conditions. Remote life rarely gives you that.
