I agree with Tim Keller, “I read because I’m desperate.” While reading by itself will not make one a better leader or follower, reading well will improve both. Yet, even then, one must take the knowledge and allow it to change his/her life. Read purposefully.

Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown
I find it curious that I choose to just read this book through without a pen in hand. (was that an Adler thing?)
This is a new author for me, but it was recommended by Michael Hyatt. I think it came through the Platform University. Though it could have been a Facebook post Michael made (Ha. There's that FB working again!).
Now for the re-read, with a pin this time. Lots of important points I practice now, but I want to get better at. Some of those are..

Pendulum
This is going to be a slow, deep...read. Lot's of history!
3/31/2013: Finished a good summary of book, but will have to dig deeper into the Me vs We and relevance to my "Why" for needing to know all that. Good summary/ending.
The author makes a good case for -
The internet is a relationship building tool.
Truth? I bought and have been reading the hardback and I just don't get the point...this book is deeper than I can get right now.
But! I like the part about the internet being a relationship building tool. I get that.
6/9/2013: I've circled back numerous time to this book and the comment about the internet being a relationship building tool. This is deeper than I originally thought.
