Guiderly · Weekly Rhythm
Guiderly Weekly Work Schedule
We are what we do every day. This is the week that makes that true.
60:00
60-minute focus blocks · 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM
Daily protocols
1. The creative morning (8:30 – 11:30)
- The Friday non-negotiable: a 4-hour deep flow block. No internet, no email. This is when the Tuesday essay is born.
- The Monday leverage: turn your thinking into two formats — script and shoot the YouTube field-note version of your essay here.
- The Tuesday pulse: the essay auto-sends at 8:00 AM. Arrive at 8:30 to engage while it's fresh.
2. Relational midday (10:30 daily)
- Notes first: don't go to their essays — go to their Notes. Reply to the raw thoughts of the writers you actually read.
- Colleague restacks: restack one Note from a Tier 2 colleague every day with your own witness commentary.
3. Administrative afternoon (1:00 – 3:00)
- Email systems (Mon/Wed): the high-priority build for September — consolidating scattered lists into one master list.
- Guiderly App (daily): ten hours a week for software and cohort infrastructure.
- Relational swaps (Thu): reach out to two or three colleagues to propose mutual cross-recommendations.
4. The reading pillars (11:30 & 3:00)
- Pillar 1: active learning. Reading with a pen. Sourcing field data for next week's essay.
- Pillar 2: contemplative closing. Returning to the sources that feed your soul.
