This month in my teaching, I'm making a conscious effort to focus on the music.I know that might sound obvious. You're a music teacher—what else would you focus on? But the truth is, as teachers, there's a lot we're thinking about:Are we managing our time well? Will we complete everything on the lesson plan?Are we keeping a good pace and keeping our students engaged?Is there enough variety in the activities we're doing today: theory and sight-reading, aural skills and musical expression, on-the-bench and off-the-bench activities, rhythm and movement?How are they doing with this activity? Do they understand the concept? Have they developed this skill? Do they need a challenge?All of these things are important and necessary to our work. As teachers, we are responsible for organizing and sequencing learning activities, managing time, and assessing the outcomes. But this month, I want to prioritize the music we're making, the music my students are making.In his book Deep Work, researcher Cal Newport wrote, “Clarity about what matters provides clarity about what does not.” That's what this episode is all about.For show notes, click here.Resources Mentioned*Disclosure: I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World (Cal Newport)Ep. 021 - “How to Praise With Intention”Mindset: The New Psychology of Success (Carol Dweck)Fixed and Growth Mindsets (What I Learned from Carol Dweck's Book)Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less (Greg McKeown)

Special appreciation to Joshua Davis (website) with Smart Web Ninja, Tyler Van Eps (episode summary writing), Brent Haglund (podcast music) and Brian Roland (sparking the genesis moment of the podcast). Paul Stine joins dadAWESOME for part 3 of Father Family Rhythms. This conversation focusses on critical take-away points from the book Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown. Here's a summary from the book along with a few discussed quotes: Have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Do you simultaneously feel overworked and underutilized? Are you often busy but not productive? Do you feel like your time is constantly being hijacked by other people's agendas? If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is the Way of the Essentialist. The Way of the Essentialist isn't about getting more done in less time. It's about getting only the right things done. It is not a time management strategy, or a productivity technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution towards the things that really matter. “When we don't purposely and deliberately choose where to focus our energies and time, other people – our bosses, our colleagues, our clients, and even our families – will choose for us, and before long we'll have lost sight of everything that is meaningful and important.” “There is an unspoken hierarchy in our society about what is valuable; higher on that hierarchy are career success, fame, and wealth. Lower on the list is family, health, wisdom, and personal fulfillment.” Long Form Podcast Resources with Greg McKeown: Greg McKeown — How to Master Essentialism (#355) Two Free Audio Chapters of Essentialism (on the Tim Ferris Podcast) EP 079: ESSENTIALISM: THE KEY TO A LIFE LIVED ON PURPOSE WITH GREG MCKEOWN More Info on Paul Stine: https://www.closesimple.com/ Resources Mentioned: MIOS (Marriage Internal Operating System) from the ministry Imagine Beautiful Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less Greg McKeown

DETAILS: This week, we are coming at you with a new sound and bolder content! - Cody and Elaine are talking about the many false identities of Christianity. We discuss how we have created a culture where people do not feel safe being themselves so they create false identities to blend in. Rather than being accepting and inviting we have become conforming and demeaning to those who don't look, act, or sound like us. It's time we change the atmosphere! Enough blaming people and preaching at them to take off their masks. Instead, we have to give them a reason to not need one in the first place! --- DEFINITION: i·den·ti·ty: /ˌīˈden(t)ədē/ - The fact of being who or what a person or thing is. --- WEEKLY QUESTIONS • What masks have you personally witnessed in the Christian culture? • What are some solid steps we can take to break down this culture that leads to people feeling like they cannot be authentic?

DETAILS: Black Friday has passed and now we find ourselves smack dab in the middle of the Christmas rush. Everyone's crowding the department stores and picking out that perfect gift for those special people in their lives…. But why? - This week, Cody and Elaine are talking with Sara Sullivan. Sara is a personal inspiration to both Cody and Elaine in their evaluation of their own life and what they consume. They are talking about Consumerism Christianity and how it can directly affect your finances, mental health, and personal freedom. - Remember, to consume something is not the enemy. The problem comes when our consuming becomes what consumes us. --- DEFINITION: con·sum·er·ism: /kənˈso͞oməˌrizəm/ - the preoccupation of society with the acquisition of consumer goods. --- GUEST DETAILS: Sara is a long time practitioner of essential living, a yoga instructor, and more recently, a potter/artist. She has a passion to make every breath, dollar, and action have a purpose and to exist intentionally. --- REFERENCES: Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less - Greg McKeown: https://amzn.to/2THA6lG The Road Back to You: An Enneagram Journey to Self-Discovery - Ian Morgan Cron: https://amzn.to/2DHNfps Sleeping at Last - Podcast: https://soundcloud.com/ryancurtisoneal-1 The Minimalist Podcast: https://www.theminimalists.com --- JOIN THE COMMUNITY: If you'd like to keep the conversation going, we want to invite you, our reckless listeners, to join The Reckless Community!

There are over 50,000 storage facilities in America. Do you own too much stuff? Do you have a closet full of clothes that you don’t wear anymore that you hold on to? We get a rush from buying something new or receiving a package from Amazon, but do we really need what we are buying? Try getting rid of some of the things that you haven’t touched in the past few months.Instead of finding happiness in the things that you have, find happiness in the people you are with and the memories you are making. The memories will stay with you forever; the things in life will fade or go away. The goal is not the finish line. The journey is what you should work to enjoy.Hosts: Ryan Gardner and Nik HallResources: -The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing - Marie Kondō [book]-Spark Joy: An Illustrated Master Class on the Art of Organizing and Tidying Up - Marie Kondō [book]-Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less - Greg McKeown [book]-The Year of Less - Cait Flanders [book]-Minimalism: A Documentary About the Important Things [documentary]-Rich Roll Podcast | How To Be A Minimalist: Joshua Fields Millburn [podcast]-Blinkist [app]Connect & Subscribe: Website: earnedeffort.comInstagram: instagram.com/earnedeffortFacebook: facebook.com/EarnedEffortTwitter: twitter.com/EarnedEffortEmail: hello@earnedeffort.comSubscribe and listen on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Overcast, Google Play, or YouTubeLeave a review on Apple PodcastsFollow Your Hosts: Nik’s Instagram: instagram.com/nikolashallRyan’s Instagram: instagram.com/RyanGardnerCRyan’s Twitter: twitter.com/RyanGardnerCRyan's Goodreads: goodreads.com/RyanGardnerC

In a world where everyone and everything is clamoring for your attention, it is becomingly increasingly difficult to focus on the vital few as opposed to the trivial many. My guest today, Greg McKeown, the New York Times Bestselling Author of Essentialism, makes the case for why less can actually be more. We talk about how to eliminate distractions, the criteria for measuring what task you should actually focus on, how to establish proper boundaries, and why every man should take on the disciplined pursuit of less. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Why focusing on less can be more How to ensure only the right things get done The difference between thinking broadly and deeply Establishing criteria to measure your decisions How to eliminate the things that don't matter How to effectively establish proper boundaries How to refine and hone your gut instinct Establishing practices for systematic execution Why small wins are vital How using the word 'no' is a liberating exercise Moving your thinking from "can't" to "don't" Focusing on the vital few rather than the trivial many How to create more space (physical and mental) in your life GREG MCKEOWN Gentlemen, I want to introduce you to my guest today, Mr. Greg McKeown. He is a man who needs no introduction for many of you. If you're familiar with his work at all, you've likely read the book, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. In this New York Times Bestselling book, Greg makes the case for why each of us should strive to focus on the few things that actually matter as opposed to the tasks and projects many of us get bogged down with. He's spoken all over the world at industry conferences, huge companies like Apple, Google, Facebook, and Twitter, and governments including a personal invitation from the Prince of Norway. Needless to say, this is a man who knows what he's talking about when it comes to doing less but producing more.

The Center for Medical Simulation Book Club is a monthly session where the CMS team reads and discusses a relevant writing to the world of simulation. The Book Club is a light-hearted and enjoyable “play date,” where CMS faculty and guests have the opportunity to flex their mental muscles. In this episode of the CMS Book Club, the team discusses the book Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown. We argue over throwing out whole wardrobes, tricks to telling people "no" when they ask for favors, and how to avoid doing work tasks you just don't enjoy.

If you feel like you're being pulled in too many directions, have too many competing demands, or are working yourself to the bone, but not getting where you want to go, then do we have the show for you! Today we'll be talking with Greg McKeown, author of one of my all-time favorite books, the NY Times best-seller Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. Today we'll talk about the power of less, of letting go of everything that doesn't serve you and focusing all your efforts on just what's essential. That plus we'll talk about the how to go in monk mode, why we all want to go fly a kite, why sleep is the new status symbol, what a dinosaur covered in pink flamingos has to do with anything, and why from here on out, there's no more Yes. It's either Hell Yeah, Or No! Questions and Topics Include: What is the power of less? How'd Greg go from Law School in London to Essentialism Question: What would you do if you could do anything? What his dad said to Greg when he told him he was thinking of quitting law school – and what in the world Hamlet has to do with anything Why is it that otherwise successful people and companies don't break through to the next level? What is the paradox of success? What's the challenge that comes with success? What is the undisciplined pursuit of more, and why is it so dangerous (and it's the natural extension of success) Why success can be a catalyst for failure Why according to Bill Gates “success is a very poor teacher How do we become successful at success? What is a contribution or fulfillment gap? What does it mean to retire in roll?

In this episode Kevin and Graham talk about the importance of focus We discuss the importance of focus and we run through two exercises that you can do too. These might help you understand why you have difficulty achieving things, and that might help you free up time to focus on the important while getting rid of things you shouldn't be doing. Separately we have both come to know the importance of focus. The realisation that less is more, not necessarily doing less work, but having fewer projects on the go. Kevin referred to the book he read last year: Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less - Greg McKeown in the UK: http://amzn.to/2aH8GJW in the USA: http://amzn.to/2aOlyJu The book isn't about doing less, rather doing fewer things - "you can move an inch in a hundred directions or a mile in one direction" Understand yourself to understand why you have difficulty focussing Graham talked about the meeting he had with Nick, a business coach from  the Federation of Small Businesses.  He was told he was spinning too many plates. He has too many different, but inter related, projects going on. Nick gave graham an exercise using 9 cards which he had to sort into order. Most like him, through to least like him. You can try this yourself using post it notes. You can get more information at Nick's website http://www.partnersinmotivation.co.uk The 9 Cards are Star - Seeks recognition, respect, social esteem Defender - Seeks security, safety, stability, predictability Friend - Seeks belonging, friendship, fulfilling relationships Expert - Seeks expertise, mastery, specialisation Builder - Seeks money, material satisfactions, above average standard of living Director - Seeks power, influence, control of people or resources Creator - Seeks innovation, identification with new, expressing creative potential Spirit - Seeks freedom, independence, making own decisions Searcher - Seeks meaning, making a difference, providing worthwhile things. Seeing the top 2 or three cards that were most like him helped graham to realise why he was spinning too many plates Graham was also directed to Simon Sinek and his book "Start with Why" but particularly mentioned his ted talk. You can watch this at https://www.ted.com/talks/simon_sinek_how_great_leaders_inspire_action?language=en If you want to check out Simon's book http://amzn.to/2aHbYNl in the UK and http://amzn.to/2aMe61J in the USA Free up time from other things to focus on what you do best Having too many competing projects isn't the only problem we face. Many of us do nearly everything in our businesses ourselves. No matter how much we accept the importanc of focus, and restrict the projects we do, the day to day still gets in the way. Kevin suggested an exercise: Over the course of a week list everything you do, not just business tasks. At the end of the week sub divide those tasks into 4 sub lists. List 1 - The tasks you hated doing List 2 - The tasks you did but you sucked at List 3 - The tasks you did, and probably did quite well, but as the business owner you shouldn't be doing them List 4 - Things you really enjoyed and added most value to either you or your business. The things you need to spend more time doing are on list 4. To achieve this you need to get rid of other tasks starting at list one. Start delegating or outsourcing.

If you feel like you're being pulled in too many directions, have too many competing demands, or are working yourself to the bone, but not getting where you want to go, then do we have the show for you! Today we'll be talking with Greg McKeown, author of one of my all-time favorite books, the NY Times best-seller Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. Today we'll talk about the power of less, of letting go of everything that doesn't serve you and focusing all your efforts on just what's essential. That plus we'll talk about the how to go in monk mode, why we all want to go fly a kite, why sleep is the new status symbol, what a dinosaur covered in pink flamingos has to do with anything, and why from here on out, there's no more Yes. It's either Hell Yeah, Or No! Questions and Topics Include: What is the power of less? How'd Greg go from Law School in London to Essentialism Question: What would you do if you could do anything? What his dad said to Greg when he told him he was thinking of quitting law school – and what in the world Hamlet has to do with anything Why is it that otherwise successful people and companies don't break through to the next level? What is the paradox of success? What's the challenge that comes with success? What is the undisciplined pursuit of more, and why is it so dangerous (and it's the natural extension of success) Why success can be a catalyst for failure Why according to Bill Gates “success is a very poor teacher How do we become successful at success? What is a contribution or fulfillment gap? What does it mean to retire in roll? Why you should do only the things that bring you the most value Why saying yes to everyone is saying no to everything Why you want to do few things done better to break through to the next level Why our culture is biased to on having to do it all – which makes it more difficult to have success What's the philosophy of non-essentialism? Why you can't have it all.
