The tour

Most work doesn’t die from bad ideas.
It dies from decisions nobody says out loud.

Your book
01 / The book

Just F*cking Ship It, built in.

The top 10 bestseller inside the app. Read the intro free, then own the whole book with one purchase: nineteen chapters, highlights and bookmarks, field cards for when a decision stalls, quizzes, and the scripts for when the room pushes back.

02 / Today

Pick the one move.

Your day, with your notebook moves slotted between your meetings. The checkpoint that’s due. The thing that’s gone quiet. One card that says what to do next.

03 / Notebooks

The decision sits on the cover.

One notebook per thing you’re trying to get over the line. Start from a play (make a decision, stop something, build or drop) or a blank page. Write the decision in one sentence, set a date to look again, then make the call: proceed, adjust or stop.

04 / Write your way

Pen, voice, camera, keyboard.

Write by hand on lined, dotted, meeting or decision paper. Type, talk or snap the whiteboard. Quick notes go to Loose pages until you file them.

05 / Ask VOLTS

Stuck? Ask in your own words.

Answers come from the VOLTS method and, if you want, your own notes. With what to do next, not a lecture.

06 / Travel time

Ship something before you arrive.

Plan a trip door to door: the walk, the train with live National Rail times, the last stretch. Pick one thing that’ll be done by the time you get there. It keeps going with no signal.

07 / Headroom

Head full? Make some room.

One question, one breath. Breathing you can feel, guided sessions for hard conversations and bad meetings, and your own timer with the sound you want.

Apple Watch

Your next move,
on your wrist.

The checkpoint call, the travel countdown, a dictated note and a breath, without getting your phone out.
