Since the Hatch feature was launched, I see a lot of hatched articles on Glasp. I picked up some articles that were generated by Glasp users. It’s interesting to see the ideas! This article was originally posted as "Hatched articles by Glasp users Part 2" on Medium.
Organizing Shared Spaces and the Evolution of Information Organization
- The Organizing Tune-Ups episode emphasizes the importance of decluttering shared spaces, grouping similar items/colors, and teaching family members to maintain organization; these principles can also apply to information organization.
- Historic advancements like the inventions in ancient Alexandria were possible due to the organization of information, and early search engines and directories (like Archie and Yahoo) evolved to categorize and manage growing web content.
- As the volume of information continues to grow, it’s vital to regularly reevaluate our organizational methods, emphasizing decluttering, categorizing, and education on maintenance.
The Power of Focused Learning and Work
- Warren Buffett attributes much of his success to focused learning, spending 80% of his day reading and thinking critically to build knowledge.
- Charlie Munger emphasizes the value of self-improvement and growth, often prioritizing learning even if it means reduced income for the year.
- The Sunsama Blog recommends distinguishing between shallow and deep work, suggesting an hour for shallow tasks followed by four hours of concentrated deep work to enhance productivity.
The Power of Persistence: How to Stay Motivated and Create Meaningful Work
- Trusting the Process: Achieving goals demands patience and persistence; even when progress seems slow, it's vital to remain committed and believe in one's abilities.
- Finding an Anchor Point and Joy in the Journey: It's crucial to have a guiding vision, purpose, or passion (an anchor point) to maintain focus and direction. Additionally, true fulfillment arises from enjoying the process itself, not just the outcome.
- The Power of Revision: Continuously revisiting, rethinking, and refining one's work is essential for mastery. This commitment to revision distinguishes exceptional work and ensures continuous improvement in any craft.
The Power of Thinking: Lessons From “Solitude and Leadership” and “Turn The Ship Around!”
- Critical and Proactive Thinking: Deresiewicz’s “Solitude and Leadership” underscores the importance of immersive thinking, warning against multitasking and highlighting the value of focused attention and patience. Writing is emphasized as a tool to enhance deep thinking.
- Intent-Based Leadership: In “Turn The Ship Around!”, Marquet promotes intent-based leadership, advocating for distributed control and authority, so team members can think independently. This leadership approach requires technical competence, clarity, and consistent communication to be effective.
- Encouraging Innovation: Both works stress the value of giving people time and space for independent thinking, with a focus on finding the best solutions over merely avoiding mistakes, ultimately fostering creativity and better leadership.
The Power of Admitting You’re Wrong and Talking to Strangers
- Admitting Mistakes: Recognizing and admitting when we’re wrong is crucial for personal growth, as it allows us to learn from our errors rather than being held back by perfectionism.
- Talking to Strangers: Engaging in conversations with unfamiliar people can boost our mental health, as it encourages us to present our best selves, lifting our mood and self-perception.
- Embracing Vulnerability: Both admitting faults and opening up to strangers require vulnerability, which, though challenging, fosters personal growth, improved mental health, and overall happiness.
