43F Podcast: The 'to have done list'

Merlin Mann | Oct 16 2005

43 Folders: The 'to have done list' (mp3)

Inaugural podcast. Be patient with me.

Don't get freaked out by the items on your to-do list; think of your tasks in terms of what they'll mean to you once they're done. (02:44)

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.
