Treat Your To-Do List Like a River, and Other Mindset Shifts for Making Better Use of Your Time

The Art of Manliness

ADVICE

To-Read List River

  • View your to-read list not as a bucket to empty but as a river flowing past you.
  • Pick the most appealing items as they float by without guilt about what you miss.
  • It's impossible to consume everything, so focus on enjoying what you choose.
  • Don't feel bad about not reading everything; it's like feeling guilty for not reading every book in the Library of Congress.
  • This shift in perspective helps manage the overwhelming feeling of information overload.
