On Chasing the Right “Zero”
Not to be all “Merlin Mann” or anything, but, maybe somebody will find this useful.
I was recently asked to talk about how I think about the infamous Inbox Zero these days, and here’s what I said:

Current Status

“Learn Spelling”
Buckle up, folks.
Because, this ride is about to get really fucking bumpy.

After Dark #16: After Back To Work 012 - 5by5

The (Lazy Hack’s) Serenity Prayer
Yikes.
GOD GRANT ME
the serenity to accept that this is the dumbest thing I’ll ever type;
the knowledge to understand that this isn’t actually what the word, “serenity,” means;
the opportunity to change my mind to say I actually meant “good fortune” or something;
the wisdom to know the difference;
and whatever-the-fuck it will take to finish My Goddamned Book before I serenity myself off of a conveniently-located and very tall International Orange-colored bridge. -
I love Textmate. I love Scrivener. I love MultiMarkdown. I love The Kobayashi Maru Scenario.
And—yes—I (finally) kinda, sorta, maybe love My Goddamned Book. Just a little.
That is all.
