JD,
The enso circle is a favorite of mine – for just that – the concept of enlightenment. Anyway – love the simplicity (and meaning) of the new cover!

@ Catherina — Thank you!

Yes, I have. I try to find ways to clarify, simplify, and refine. It’s an ongoing journey.

@ Isadore — I have been doing talks on the system but I haven’t made a video yet.

I do see how making a video and doing a few webinars would really help. I may look into this more deeply in October.

JD –

You’ve managed to synthesize some of my favorite (7 Habits is one) bits of productivity/goal setting ideas into one system. One thing I really miss about using PlanPlus (software that guides you through the 7 Habits weekly process) is the coaching and walk throughs. Barring developing your own software, have you ever considered doing a webinar or video about how you do this?

@ Vidya — Thank you. It sounds like you are really making the most of the book, and making the most of you … great job.

That’s a beautiful cover. I am a fan of being minimal. The book itself is excellent and I am enjoying it tremendously. Not just enjoying it, but taking tips to practice and make life better! Thanks!

@ David — Thank you.

Surprisingly, as simple as the Enso looks, it was very difficult to create one that I was happy with. It was a lot of back and forth with the artist, and I think I drove them nuts. I’m happy with the final result.

@ Mads — Prioritizing and focus are definitely part of the solution. The other way is to use your best energy for your best work. The big game changer happens when you get clarity on what’s valued.

Even doing a little of something valued, wins over doing a lot of something that is not valued.

And “value is in the eye of the beholder”
