Do Less

Beach Time

There is one major reason many of you are unhappy. There is one major reason why people today have a hard time being really good at anything useful. There is one reason why ADHD is a buzz-word, and is a problem with more people than those who admit it.

You're all trying to do too much, trying to remember too many things, trying to be good at everything you're supposed to do.

People were not meant to do this much, to remember this many things, to be good at so many activities. Account numbers, login/ password, addresses, cell phone numbers, HR handbook, health insurance manual, terms and conditions.

Back in the day, there were two things that mattered: Food and Shelter. Everything else was a bonus.

So to honor our fallen ancestors, I did as little as possible this weekend , and I feel great. I slept in, ate food when I was hungry, hung out with friends, called my mom, and went out to the beach on the Oregon coast to relax with my lady and our dogs. Writing this post is the most intellectual activity that's popped across my smiling synapses in 3 days.

If you want to be a better person…to live the life you were meant to live…in fact, if you're looking for more meaning in life: Do Less. It's awesome.
