Original Advice

DO: Prioritize deep work over constant availability.

Choose Depth Over Dings

Uncomfortable truth: your constant availability is a leak, not a flex. You confuse being reachable with being reliable. Pings yank you like a bell on a cow. You trade attention for approval and call it work. Every instant reply interrupts the thing that would actually change your paycheck. Stop crowd-pleasing. Close the door. Let them wait. Value is forged in silence, not in chat windows.

Deep work compounds like interest. Context-switching taxes you every minute and leaves nothing to harvest. You are a builder, not a concierge. Choose a single slab of effort and carve it until it holds weight. Batch the noise. Schedule your answers. Protect your mornings like a vault. When you guard your attention, your output gets heavier, rarer, and harder to ignore.

Cosmic Context

Fixed earth, ruled by Venus, you excel at steady, quality craft. Anchor your schedule; let your gravity set the pace, not their alerts.
