One piece of research can become a document a presentation a post and a conversation.
Example: A strategist writes a 3,000-word competitive analysis, then extracts three LinkedIn posts, a five-slide executive summary, a podcast talking-points sheet, and a team workshop activity from the same core research — five outputs from one investment of deep work.
Try this: Take the most substantial output you produced in the past thirty days.
