Book recommendation after a long time.
"The Not-To-Do List" by Rolf Dobelli argues that success doesn't come from doing more, it comes from avoiding mistakes. Instead of focusing on what to do, focus on what to avoid.
Key Ideas:
1. Avoid noise, seek clarity – Say no to distractions like constant news, email, and social media.
2. Stop multitasking – Focus on one thing at a time to be more effective.
3. Don’t fall into decision traps – Avoid common thinking errors and cognitive biases.
4. Say no more often – Protect your time and attention fiercely.
5. Cut the clutter – Eliminate unnecessary goals, meetings, and obligations.
Success is more about elimination than addition. By avoiding bad habits, distractions, and mental traps, you free up time, energy, and focus for what truly matters. 2 replies
