Send your follow-up emails before you go to sleep, no matter what
In Never Eat Alone, Keith Ferrazzi writes that you should send a follow-up email the same day you meet someone. Not within 24 hours… the same day. His reasons are varied, but mine is singular: if I don’t send the emails before I go to bed, it’s unlikely that I’ll ever get them done.
For example, Monday though Wednesday I emailed every person I met at GDC. Thursday I didn’t have the juice in my tank and didn’t follow up with anyone at the Alpha / Bessemer dinner. And I still haven’t.
Tap the energy reserves and get it done.
