The best system in the world won't help you if it never starts.

In this episode, I explain what I mean by a trigger, how triggers can be tied to times, actions, habits, locations, or reminders, and why a clear starting signal can make a useful system far more consistent.

I also share how finishing a video triggers my publishing workflow, why a simple phone alarm can remove the need to remember, and how writing the first line became the trigger that helped me start writing when I worked as a full-time writer.
