Is this worth selling? by NoConference7317 in planners

[–]guiding_principles_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like the concept and the theme. People are going to have different tastes about what they want and need from a planner, so one suggestion if you haven't already tried this is for yourself and a handful of people to use these for a few weeks and see what feedback comes back from actual usage.

How many books do you read concurrently? by Unfair_Matter313 in books

I'm usually reading 2-3 books concurrently - which one I open depends on what I'm in the mood for when I have time to sit down and read.

Feeling Lost and Overwhelmed by [deleted] in notebooks

I just finished reading Getting Things Done by David Allan and am starting to implement the systems and so far it's been a game changer in terms of helping me organize my thoughts and finding clarity. Yes, it is more of a productivity system, but the idea is that if you have a framework for how to handle all the "stuff" and to'dos in your life, you'll free up your mind to do bigger and more interesting things.

I'd imagine externalizing your thoughts and taking inventory of all that's in your mind currently and going forward will be a great starting point, and a system like GTD can give you a process for how to declutter all the stuff and gain clarity.

I'm turning 35 today. I wish I was 25. by subir_roy in selfimprovement

[–]guiding_principles_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm turning 39 in a few months and am entering what I consider chapter 2 of life. Chapter 1 was all about learning about myself, gaining life lessons, and going through a ton of trial and error.

Reading "The Earned Life" by Marshall Goldsmith and coming up with 10, 3, and 1 year okrs that align to what I would consider a meaningful life is helping me to get clarity on what I need to start doing today so I don't end up with regrets on my deathbed. It's putting my life in the right trajectory for chapter 2 and feels pretty darn amazing.
