Grab a pen and paper. The Minimalists have a challenge for you!

Key Points:

  • We all have dreams and goals, but we are often not taking steps to achieve them.
  • Often, our aspirations don’t align with what our daily lives look like.
  • Determine what is actually urgent vs. what only appears to be urgent. Misguided urgency is often the enemy of progress.
  • Don’t miss out on your aspirations and accomplishments by making inconsequential things into urgent things.
