Few books have reshaped my thinking over the past 6 years as much as Greg McKeown’s New York Times Bestseller, “Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less”.
In fact, it had such an impact that last year The Bassett Firm brought Greg in to be the keynote-speaker at our Annual Firm Retreat.
With a world that tells us to always be ON, the concept of saying NO, or even the act of turning down an opportunity are viewed as either selfish or self-defeating.
Greg’s book taught me the importance of saying NO.
Why it’s vital the we “protect the asset”.
And how to compensate for the inevitable (often unpleasant) push-back that comes with the Essentialist way of life.
This conversation was a reminder that Essentialism is a way of life, not simply a mindset or a temporary program to get someone back into the arena to fight the same fights that knocked them down in the first place.
I think Greg’s humility & openness is something we could all use a dose of from time to time & I’m thrilled I was able to explore with him this crazy thing called life.
Enjoy the conversation & make sure to rate & review us.
