A great book from Patrick Rhone. It’s influenced my thinking, reinforced and clarified some values. One that I revisit regularly.

Enough comes from trying things out. It comes from challenging your preconceptions. It comes from having less, trying more, then reducing to find out what is just right. It comes from letting go of your fear of less. It comes from letting go of the false security of more. It also comes from having more, losing it all, and finding out what need really is.

Saying no to commitments that we make beyond our available time is saying yes to performing well the current commitments we have the time for.

Out of all of the steps to creation and sharing, it is the pause that is at its root and therefore the most valuable to us. Therefore, cultivate more opportunity for these pauses.  Seek them. Own them. Dwell in them.

Find a plan that works for you.
