What's important today? That simple question has changed the course of my life. And I am not the only one. Yet, when I ask leaders all over the world who has answered it today, in writing, putting the items in priority order, I'd say less than 1 percent have. Just think: you distinguish yourself from 99 percent of people by just asking and answering this question every day. #Essentialism #Effortless
Greg McKeown , permission to share this content of yours. It’s a beautiful summary of all things essential and I think would help a lot of people.
Thanks for the reminder to revisit your book!
This is great and thanks for the reminder, especially with the hustle and bustle of the holidays. Happy Holidays Greg McKeown ????
Love the emphasis on priorities
Have this printed out and use it as a tool with the students I work with Greg McKeown It really helps my high performers understand that you can achieve and be happy!
My favorite part is “Says ‘no’ to everything except the essential” this has been so powerful in my life.
“LESS but BETTER” - “I CHOOSE To” ““Weniger, aber besser.” - Dieter Rams’ philosophy” “The Disciplined PURSUIT Of LESS” - “Say ‘NO’” “LIVE A Life That Really Matters” - “CHOOSE Carefully” “What's important today?” “THE ESSENTIALIST” “The ‘Less, But Better’ Approach to Life” “Imagine taking this “Less, but Better” approach to our life design. Focus on its double meaning. By doing less, we can improve ourselves because we gain time and energy. By doing less, we will have more. When I feel overwhelmed, I remind myself of Rams’ philosophy “Weniger, aber besser.” Less, but better.” - “We have the knowledge, but that doesn’t mean we are executing on it. Most successful entrepreneurs and people believe success has much less to do with the idea and everything to do with the execution. This is so true. Success is about developing consistent daily routines and habits versus relying on willpower.” https://equalman.com/less-but-better/ Source- original post Read all my posts #MariusPreston #lessbutbetter #pursuitofless #happinessisachoice #successisachoice #livelifeonyourterms #livelifetothefullest #livelifeonpurpose #alifethatreallymatters #focusonwhatmatters #whatsimportanttoday #prioritize #ESSENTIALIST

1 年I used to be the quintessential nonessentialist and ended up in the hospital with a life-threatening illness in 2016. Lesson learned the hard way. Now I prioritize my spiritual and family time and I still amazingly have a satisfying career and volunteer life. In 2023, I am focused on my personal creativity. I have listened to your podcast for years, and you have been a significant part of this essentialism focus. Thank you, Greg! "If you don't prioritize your life, someone else will." ??
