  • If I had 6 hours to cut a tree down, I’d spend the first 4 sharpening the axe.
    We discuss work efficiency in all facets of financial, physical, and availability of tools and space. Tracey reads a quote from Abraham Lincoln, “If I had 6 hours to cut a tree down, I would spend the first 4, sharpening the axe”.

  • Death To: We’ve always done it this way
    We discuss balancing conventional wisdom vs. trying new strategies and looking to improve. We dive into the famous quote, “the most damaging phrase in the language is, ‘we’ve always done it this way”. We finish discussing Black Friday, consumerism and why we hate it, haha.
