Hey there, Reader,

Just popping into your inbox with a reminder that my public task study is happening right now!

If you haven't had a chance to peek at the Google Doc yet, there's plenty to see.

We're only two days in, and so far I've:

• Started working before 5 a.m. both days. By design.
• Spent a surprising amount of time dealing with a spreadsheet problem for a client. Still not solved.
• Juggled client meetings, homeschooling, tutoring, and therapy appointments. Life never slows down.
• Worked on podcast post-production. This makes me happier than I realized.
• Discovered that organizing a 5K/10K Zombie Run involves considerably more email than I anticipated. At least I have a paper trail.

And, of course, there was cat vomit. 🤢

Because real life doesn't care that you're conducting a task study.

Remember, you don't need to do anything with this information.

You can read along, leave a comment or question in the document, or conduct your own task study if you're feeling inspired.

I'm not trying to prove how much I can accomplish in a week. I'm looking for patterns that will help me make better decisions about where my attention goes.

And I'm already noticing things I want to examine more closely.

I'll keep updating the document through Sunday, November 1, and share my findings in Monday's newsletter.

In the meantime, feel free to be nosy. That's why I invited you. 😉

In your corner,

Tonya

P.S. Saturday is the Zombie Run, so I suspect the next few days will be particularly interesting. 🧟‍♀️
