In this post-Halloween episode, Darin shares a lesson inspired by watching his kids sort their candy after trick-or-treating. What initially looked like chaos became clarity as they organized their candy into categories — keep, trade, and toss. He encourages listeners to apply the same approach to their business as the year winds down: dump out all tasks, projects, and commitments, then sort through them to clarify what matters most. Focus on revenue-moving priorities, delegate or automate the rest, and eliminate the busy work taking up mental and calendar space. Instead of over-planning and dragging tasks into the new year, take quick action now to gain momentum and finish strong.

This passive activity, masked as actual activity robs us of our time and focus. Today, I'll share three tips to help you break free from this cycle: carrying a pocket notebook, like Field Notes, Moleskine or Leuchthturm, switching to a dumb phone, using an app like Blank Spaces and using what I call The Pocket Switch.
