Building two hours a day.

Why two hours?

Two hours is small enough to be realistic on hard days and large enough to create real output over time. It forces ruthless prioritization: one meaningful deliverable each session, every week, for years.

The goal is not maximal hustle. The goal is sustainable compounding. Keep your day job, protect family time, and still ship.

Core principles

• Two focused hours beat ten distracted ones.
• Constraint is the strategy: if it does not fit, it does not ship this week.
• Consistency compounds. The streak matters more than any single week.
• Family and work obligations are not blockers; they define the system.

Combining this with work and family

Build in pre-decided slots. Early mornings, lunch breaks, or late evenings can all work if they are consistent. Protect those two hours like appointments, then stop when the session ends.

Keep the weekly scope intentionally small so you can finish without sacrificing sleep, relationships, or job performance. The project should support your life, not consume it.
