Books
Living with the Monks: What Turning Off My Phone Taught Me about Happiness, Gratitude, and FocusAuthor: Jesse Itzler
I really enjoyed this book. Yes it's light and funny, but don't get fool, there is a deeper message here. I think Jessy wins his challenge by going into a monastery so we don't have to. We all have what it takes to live a more purposeful life, we just need to pause. Showdown, to go faster, do less to do more... Embrace the silence.
