Quotes and Tweets:

Essentialism is not about how to get more things done, it’s about how to get the right things done. It doesn’t mean just doing less for the sake of less either. It is about making the wisest possible investment of your time and energy in order to operate at our highest point of contribution by doing on what is essential. – Greg McKewon
It doesn’t really matter what it is that you quit. And it doesn’t have to be something big. When you say no to something small, it can help you build your courage to say no to something bigger. It’s not really about saying no, it’s about making room to saying yes to the things that matter. @emilypfreeman
Clarity cannot be rushed. – Marie Forleo
Our next right thing will often be to wait. Give time to allow the clutter to clear. Create space for your soul to breathe. Make room for your desire to show up at the table. Wait. Listen. Repeat. It’s not a black and white world, which means decisions are rarely right or wrong. It doesn’t always matter which road you choose. What matters is God is with you. @emilypfreeman
Decisions are God’s way of saying I love you. @emilypfreeman
Just because someone gives you advice, it doesn’t mean you have to pick it up and put it in your pocket. You don’t have to carry someone else’s life choices around. @imbetweenshow
