I ask myself one question before every decision.
And it's saved me thousands of hours.
Here it is:
"Will this matter in 6 months?"
That's it.
If the answer is no I don't do it.
Let me show you how this works.
Should I redesign my website?
Will it matter in 6 months? No. New clients come from outreach not websites.
Skip it.
Should I spend 3 hours perfecting this email?
Will it matter in 6 months? No. Sent is better than perfect.
Ship it.
Should I take this meeting?
Will it matter in 6 months? No. It's just a networking call with no clear outcome.
Decline it.

Ready to scale faster?
Should I build this offer?
Will it matter in 6 months? Yes. This could generate revenue for years.
Do it.
See how this works?
Most of what we do doesn't matter.
It's busywork disguised as productivity.
But this question cuts through all of it.
If it won't matter in 6 months it doesn't matter today.
So don't do it.
Focus only on the things that compound.
The things that will still be creating value 6 months from now.
Everything else is a distraction.
Here's what I focus on:
Content (compounds forever)
Relationships (compound forever)
Offers (generate revenue forever)
Skills (valuable forever)
Everything else gets cut.
Try this for one week.
Before every task ask: "Will this matter in 6 months?"
Watch how much time you get back.

P.S. What are you doing today that won't matter in 6 months? Cut it.

AI Alone Can’t Run Revenue
Finance doesn’t run on “mostly right.” It runs on math.
In The Architecture Behind AI-Native Revenue Automation, Tabs’s CTO breaks down why LLMs alone aren’t enough—and what it actually takes to build audit-ready, AI-driven contract-to-cash systems for modern B2B teams.
