(Pt 4 of 5) Excellence by Design: Crafting Your Environment of Excellence Using “MAPS”

Key Takeaways

Use the MAPS framework—Media, Area, People, Speech—to intentionally build an environment of excellence that supports your goals.

Ruthlessly curate media: limit biased cable news and low-value scrolling; prioritize neutral, goal-aligned sources like 1440 and Tangle and educational content.

Make small, immediate tweaks to align with your values—delete distracting apps, surface priority apps and cues, optimize your workspace, connect with the right people, and use a one-line daily mantra.

Top Quotes

Without it, you will drift.

The acronym is this, MAPS.

Media, area, people, speech.
