This will be brief because I’m starting my vacation tomorrow. That’s also why you won’t see a new post here until November 18th.

Something I’m reading now is Greg McKeown’s book Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. This isn’t the “essentialism” of Plato, et al., which had to do with everything having an essence, but rather about focusing on the things that really matter, whether that’s in your work or your personal life.
I’ve just started it, but this visual note-taking video from Verbal to Visual provides a brief, but interesting explanation of the concepts in the book.
