Welcome to Litsy!

Following up Deep Work with this book which was also assigned to me at my job.

This book is a solid work on putting more value on your time and spending it on projects, goals, etc. that really matter and reducing the time spent on fluff. It's geared towards knowledge workers (professors, marketing reps, etc.) but has plenty of applications for any walk of life. A primary goal of Newport is to help his readers that they're more capable of effective time management than we feel like.

I was really sad that I wasn‘t reading fiction, but I loved this self help book. 💚

I applied to the Amazon Publishing Creator Program and they accepted me. Yay! I don‘t know what social content inspiration means but I‘m glad they‘re giving me a chance.

“If you have more than three priorities, you don‘t have any.”

I recently read an article where a congressperson said that if you want to know what it‘s like to work with Trump then read this book. Well then…

It‘s not surprising that a representative would recommend this; like most of them, it‘s just sorta blah. The way it throws ‘psychopath‘ around so freely feels like a misnomer—according to the authors my boss is a psychopath when I‘m pretty sure he‘s just an a****le.

ETFs are the way to go.

Oh how I wish I could go back in time ✨

Very interesting read on the longest serving CEO in tech.

Still working slowly through King. Loving the Sense & Sensibility adaptation. Starting the audio today. Hope to start Margo today, too. On the Calculation is the only Booker International Longlist book my library has and I‘m trying not to buy new books. The Women‘s Prize Longlist drops the 4th and it may change all of the above 😂
