Ep. 91: GREG MCKEOWN on Making Essential Work Effortless

Deep Questions with Cal Newport

NOTE

Is Essentialism a Radical Change?

"You can't control everything that happens, so focus on what you can control. When launching a book, it's more important to make sure people know about it rather than obsessing over sales numbers. Essentialism became a major topic in my life, with everyone talking about it. But there are still many people who haven't heard of it. The journey to spread awareness is just beginning. It's a great experience to meet people whose lives have been changed by my work. However, I understand the dangers of getting caught up in praise and success. The important thing is to focus on the work itself and keep moving forward."
