🦾 Yearn for simplicity
I’ve decided to write a book about simplicity.
Intense focus and simplicity are ideals I’ve struggled to implement, yet want to so badly.
I’ve never more felt a calling to simplicity than now as I’m currently managing multiple growing teams and businesses that are demanding my attention and time.
Chief Decision maker also means Chief Think-all-the-time-about people, projects, money, clients, burn, profitability, everything everywhere all at once.
I yearn for simplicity.
I yearn to have one business with one product, one funnel, and one Facebook ads campaign so I can obsess over it and scale it.
Depth, not width.
But I tend towards width. I’m good at managing multiple things and people. I think I’m not as good at doing only one thing. Maybe it’s genetic.
Or maybe what we want is not what we have for a reason. Maybe the grass is always greener no matter which side you hop.
Either way, I will get there.
So I’m going to document ends up working for me while studying the countless examples throughout history of others that identified the power and beauty in less.
I saw this picture of the SpaceX engine evolution on Twitter the other day and can't stop thinking about it.
I lost myself in a trance the first time I saw it.
This picture shows so much.
It represents the ultimate fight against entropy.
In this unassuming simple picture, you get the ultimate encapsulation of simplicity, innovation, human ingenuity, spirit, and perseverance.
I love every single pixel. I love the hope in a brighter future it so casually calls out.
It’s magnificent.
That’s the power of simplicity and focus.

“I’ve also come to believe in the complete and utter insignificance of the self, and I think that helps a lot. For example, if you thought you were the most important thing in the Universe, then you would have to bend the entire Universe to your will. If you’re the most important thing in the Universe, then how could it not conform to your desires. If it doesn’t conform to your desires, something is wrong. However, if you view yourself as a bacteria or an amoeba—or if you view all of your works as writing on water or building castles in the sand, then you have no expectation for how life should “actually” be. Life is just the way it is. When you accept that, you have no cause to be happy or unhappy. Those things almost don’t apply.”

“What you feel tells you nothing about the facts—it merely tells you something about your estimate of the facts. It’s actually really important to have empty space. If you don’t have a day or two every week in your calendar where you’re not always in meetings, and you’re not always busy, then you’re not going to be able to think. You’re not going to be able to have good ideas for your business. You’re not going to be able to make good judgments. I also encourage taking at least one day a week (preferably two, because if you budget two, you’ll end up with one) where you just have time to think. It’s only after you’re bored you have the great ideas.“

💭 Quote To Ponder
If you find yourself creating a spreadsheet for a decision with a list of yes’s and no’s, pros and cons, checks and balances, why this is good or bad…forget it. If you cannot decide, the answer is no. [10]
