  • Why the mindset of becoming a "business of one" is so important
  • The critical role autonomy plays in becoming an productive and happy remote worker
  • Why companies need to shift from measuring "hours worked" to measuring results
  • What was unique about how Peter Lynch managed his time at Fidelity
  • Why we should leave an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon for thinking time
  • How writing helps you clarify your thinking
  • Why everyone should aim for the optimal amount of remote work
  • Why remote work is here to stay (at least in some form) and how to prepare for the future.
