The week I accidentally double-booked myself and it worked out weirdly well

I had 3 HVAC calls lined up for last Tuesday in Denver, then somehow agreed to a fourth from a past client whose system was down. I was stressed but I knocked them all out by 4 PM because the route just flowed perfectly, even with the extra stop. It made me realize how much I overestimate how long stuff takes when I'm not micromanaging every step. Has anyone else had a crazy day where too much work actually made you more efficient?

Funny how that works. Same thing happens to me with errands or home projects. When I've got less time I just move faster and stop second-guessing every little thing. Your brain kicks into a different gear when there's no room to waste time.

Wait, you actually finished four HVAC calls by 4 PM? That sounds impossible unless the traffic gods were on your side. I'm honestly shocked you pulled that off without losing your mind.
