simplify your life: A Man and His Bag:

There was a man in India who was traveling on a train, and he had all of his possesion in a bag which was sitting in the luggage compartment above him.

He was very tired, but couldn’t fall asleep for fear someone would steal everything he owned when he closed his eyes.

How I Changed My Life, In Four Lines | zenhabits:

simplifyyourlife:

So what are the principles that changed my life, repeatedly?

1. Start very small.
2. Do only one change at a time.
3. Be present and enjoy the activity (don’t focus on results).
4. Be grateful for every step you take.

In programming, this is called an algorithm. It’s a series of steps that you can apply to make any change, no matter what your situation.

LESS GOALS

Living with less goals allowed me to focus my life. This allowed me to achieve greater results on the few things that truly mattered to me.

Steve Jobs also focused on his loved ones and his company. Interestingly, there is now a debate on why he didn’t do much philanthropic work. I think he changed the world more by focusing on Apple.

“He has been focused on two things — building the team at Apple and his family,” a friend told Sorkin. “That’s his legacy. Everything else is a distraction.”
