I color-code my work calendar based on what type of activity I’m doing: Red is for meetings about new companies, while light blue is for internal meetings with my team. Purple is basically my personal time, orange is for work related to Rough Draft Ventures, and gray is for portfolio companies.
For example, this week was a little off: I can tell from looking at it that I didn’t spend enough time on my existing portfolio. I looked at too many deals, and I had too many meetings about new companies.
