Twofer

Word of the week.

🕰 In today’s newsletter I hope to add many quality hours to your life that you could use for leisure or pursue your goals, Enjoy!

Side A:

A cigar selling at 2 for a nickle, is called a twofer.

Being stuck in traffic and listening to an audiobook is called a twofer.

I bet there are many things you’ll do today that are twofers.

Here’s some of mine:

• When my wife brings me my lunch she also gives me a hug and a kiss. (Belly and souled nourished)

• When I eat my lunch, I stand. (Nourishment, reduced effects from oversitting)

• Friends are coming over and bringing their kids (Kids entertained, friendship maintained)

• During my daily sketching time, I’ll sketch icons of things I need to draw at work later. (Leisurely drawing + progress at work)

Combining the things we plan to do, frees up enormous amounts of time.

Delivering work with twofer value makes the work worth more.
