The Art of Writing and Reading

Welcome back to Part 2 of our conversation with none other than Jay Papasan and Gary Keller! We do a deep dive into managing: How do we turn on self-discipline and accountability to ensure that we have success, and then how do we manage our time such that we get the most out of it.

If you’re looking for a shiny, new-fangled answer, you won’t get it here. Gary and Jay drive home the tried-and-true steps: goals, plans, actions, results, accountability, and then do it all over again. Again and again. We also get into “the path is in the math” and “win the morning to win the day.”

Then, in true Gary Keller fashion, we talk about books. Lots of books. Fiction and nonfiction. Check the Resources section below for a list and links.

If you’ve ever wanted to spend time in Gary Keller’s library, this is your chance to be there virtually. Soak it in!
