Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains. ~ Steve Jobs
Show Notes
Episode 37 coming to you from Antalya, Turkey. Today we’re talking about un-busying your life so you can do more of what you really want.
Are you confusing busyness with progress? It’s an easy mistake to make, working all day long and wondering why you made no progress. Today’s guest, Joel Zaslofsky, talks about why simplicity from the inside out will give you more of what you want in life. And he even taught Betsy a way she can finally love spreadsheets…
More about Joel: He is the creator of unsexy tools that result in a very sexy life. What he can teach you at Value of Simple is to focus on what really matters in your life instead of pushing it to the side or waiting for “leftover” time.
Too busy to journal? Wondering how you’ll ever finish your bucket list? Concerned about where your money is going (or not going)?
Joel has practical answers to all these questions, and you know how much we love practical tips. Check out his website, and listen in below for a great conversation about what really matters.
