If you read this book or anything by this author you will learn she believes the first step in manifesting your desires is to declutter both your physical and your psychological space s. If you never heard of Tim Ferriss before, he has a bit of a cult following and a hugely entertaining and popular podcast which I suggest you check out. “Being busy is a form of laziness – lazy thinking and indiscriminate action.”― Timothy Ferriss Don’t give in to a culture that values personal sacrifice over personal productivity.”― Timothy Ferriss “Focus on being productive instead of busy.” ―Timothy Ferriss (tweet this) Key takeaway: I wasn’t sure at first which category to put this book under…is it personal development?

“Essentialism is not about how to get more things done it’s about how to get the right things done. “Remember that if you don’t prioritize your life someone else will.” ― Greg McKeown (tweet this) Are you spending your time with people and on projects that matter most?

For the first in this series, I am going with all the books I read on productivity as I am willing to bet that get organized is something you have on the top of your to-do list for 2016.

Either way, I assume that you follow me because you like to expand your universe and a good book recommendation is always appreciated.

If on the other hand, you do not paint but follow this blog because you like my art then perhaps you will like this series as you want to understand a bit behind the scenes of how my mind works. I know that you may be reading my blog because you want to learn art techniques– so if this is you, perhaps learning a bit about how I run my art business may be of interest. I recognize that this book review has little to do with my art making and honestly I am not sure who this series is for. This looking back is sort of a form of reverse New Year’s resolutions. This blog post is actually going to be part of a series of blog posts that looks back over the last year as I share with you the books I have read and some of the key takeaways. After passing on a very expensive online course promising to teach “how to maximize your performance ,” I went on a year long quest to educate myself in similar strategies by reading books in management, personal self-development and marketing. At the end of last year, I made a very firm commitment to read.
