You’ve got a huge decision to make - the common advice would be to ‘sleep on it’.



Carsales CEO Cameron McIntyre says even if ‘sleeping on it’ actually looks more like lying awake in bed thinking about it all night, taking 24 hours before you make a crucial decision, or reply to a frustrating email, is worth it. 



According to Cameron, leaders don’t get the benefit of throwing their hands up in defeat - that kind of behaviour can be contagious in an organisation. 



He shares how you can remain calm and composed for those around you.

How I Work

When you’re a leader, there’s no excuse for losing your cool. Carsales CEO Cameron McIntyre shares how he remains composed when it matters most, even when replying to irritating emails.

My Favourite Tip: Carsales CEO Cameron McIntyre - Don’t send that email just yet!

Almanac CEO Adam Nathan believes in the value of deep work. He’s seen how effective it is, and knows first-hand how satisfying it can be. But in recent years, he’s learned that this doesn’t automatically make shallow work the greatest enemy to productivity or job satisfaction… 

Instead, he’s discovered that most professionals consider their time well spent if they’re able to check everything off their to-do lists, even if some of that work is shallow. What really matters is simply getting stuff done, and the real enemy of getting stuff done is unexpected interruptions. 

Being prepared for uncertainty isn’t about being able to predict the future, but instead being able to learn from these unexpected interruptions, or ‘fire drills’ as they’re called at Almanac, when they do occur. 

Adam’s favourite way to approach these problems is with the mantra, “Slow is smooth and smooth is fast,” adopted from the U.S. Marines. The problem isn’t that a fire drill occurred, it’s that most companies don’t take a moment afterwards to figure out why it happened, and how best to deal with it if it happens again… 

Connect with Adam on LinkedIn, read more about The Modern Work Method, or try out Almanac for yourself

* How Kayla has hacked her sleep routine 
* The strategies Kayla has tried to cut down on her mobile phone use

Kayla Itsines' non-negotiables for health and wellbeing

Think about this: how many times have you been told to "just be happy" in the midst of chaos? Or to "give yourself a break" when everything seems to be falling apart? The idea sounds simple, but living it can be a whole different story. In this Quick Win episode, I sit down with musical theatre star Lucy Durack who shares how a simple piece of advice changed her life and how she pays it forward to others.
