I love Derek Sivers books. My favorites are 📚 Your Music and People and 📚 Anything You Want. I didn’t find this one the strongest but it still provided a few nuggets.

#Things to consider

  • You’ve probably heard the phrase, “Perfect is the enemy of good.” Likewise: True is the enemy of useful.
  • Different philosophies for different times in your life.
  • There’s a crucial moment in between when something happens and when you actually respond. It’s an important life skill.
  • Go back to your favorite books, movies, thinkers, or heroes. They’re your favorites for good reason. They have lessons or wisdom you can use.
  • Once you find a viewpoint you want to adopt, a great tool to internalize it is a private journal.
