A couple months ago I was challenged to read the book Essentialism, The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown.
Deciding to read it was not a hard decision for me at all since I have been on this journey now for 2 years to minimize the stress in my life. I discovered that growing through subtraction is a lot easier than growing through addition.
I have learned to ask what are the things in my life that I need to eliminate? What can I stop doing that doesn't provide value? We can always add more to our plate, but I wanted quality, not quantity.
Don't you want the best for your family? Don't you want to live life to its fullest? Have you discovered yet the immeasurable value of time?
Have you discovered yet the immeasurable value of time?
When you become an essentialist you discover what is really important.
- Faith
- Family
- Relationships
Well, I choose to live as an essentialist.
We will be reading through Essentialism and discovering more ways to enrich ourself and our families. In the ISI group we will be studying a number of great books along the way. I'm willing to put forth the extra effort and energy to lead my family to the next level. I hope you will join me.
