It doesn’t mean just doing less for the sake of less either. It is about making the wisest possible investment of your time and energy in order to operate at our highest point of contribution by doing only what is essential.” ― Greg McKeown, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less jennifer_adams https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967365 2016-10-06 19:59:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967365 “Essentialists see trade-offs as an inherent part of life, not as an inherently negative part of life. Instead of asking, “What do I have to give up?” they ask, “What do I want to go big on?” ― Greg McKeown, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less jennifer_adams https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967504 2016-10-06 19:59:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967504 “Today, technology has lowered the barrier for others to share their opinion about what we should be focusing on. It is not just information overload; it is opinion overload.” ― Greg McKeown, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less jennifer_adams https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967711 2016-10-06 20:00:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967711 “The way of the Essentialist means living by design, not by default. Instead of making choices reactively, the Essentialist deliberately distinguishes the vital few from the trivial many, eliminates the nonessentials, and then removes obstacles so the essential things have clear, smooth passage. In other words, Essentialism is a disciplined, systematic approach for determining where our highest point of contribution lies, then making execution of those things almost effortless.” ― Greg McKeown, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less jennifer_adams https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967798 2016-10-06 20:00:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967798 “Essentialism: only once you give yourself permission to stop trying to do it all, to stop saying yes to everyone, can you make your highest contribution towards the things that really matter.” ― Greg McKeown, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less jennifer_adams https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967985 2016-10-06 20:01:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128967985 “If it isn’t a clear yes, then it’s a clear no.” ― Greg McKeown, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less jennifer_adams https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128968272 2016-10-06 20:02:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/128968272 jennifer_adams https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/132007615 2016-10-20 09:31:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jennifer_adams/uy0sulxakzdu/wish/132007615
