Everybody has a to-do list. But the best leaders have a clear, disciplined to-don’t list. This episode explores how and why we develop a to don’t list and determine what is essential and what is not. Much of this is taken from the book fantastic Essentialism by Greg McKeown, who writes about the concept of “less – but better.”Essentialism Also, check out Guy Kawasaki at www.guykawasaki.comHe’s a great thinker.

To be resilient means we have to be able to think resiliently so we can lead resiliently. The six hats are:· The white hat is about facts.· The red hat is about feelings.· The yellow hat is where we think optimistically about what could be.· The black hat is where we think pessimistically of why something would not work.· The green hat is about ideas, alternatives and possibilities.· And the blue hat helps us think about our thinking, summarize what we’ve thought through and set goals for next steps.Edward de Bono’s The Six Thinking Hats ***If you enjoy this podcast, can we ask a 45 second favor of you?
