Executive #Bookshelf : Simplify : Ten Practices To Unclutter Your Soul - Bill Hybels @BillHybels
Synopsis
Exhausted. Overwhelmed. Overscheduled. Sound familiar? Today’s velocity of life can consume and control us . . . until our breakneck pace begins to feel normal and expected. That’s where the danger lies: When we spend our lives doing things that keep us busy but don’t really matter, we sacrifice the things that do.
What if your life could be different? What if you could be certain you were living the life God called you to live—and building a legacy for those you love? If you crave a simpler life anchored by the priorities that matter most, roll up your sleeves: Simplified living requires more than just cleaning out your closets or reorganizing your desk drawer. It requires uncluttering your soul. By eradicating the stuff that leaves your spirit drained, you can stop doing what doesn’t matter—and start doing what does.
In Simplify, bestselling author Bill Hybels identifies the core issues that lure us into frenetic living—and offers practical steps for sweeping the clutter from our souls.
Tom’s Take:
Although based in religious philosophy, Simplify is a great book to declutter and uncomplicated your life. I have always been of the mindset that simpler is better in both business and life, but taking the time to really dive into the subject reaffirmed my beliefs. Although uncomfortable to do, re-evaluating priorities and goals in life, and then clearing out the rest of the noise is a great way to make sure you are on the path towards a fulfilling life.
