Preach it! I really liked this post. I have read books on focusing on essential things, I have ready books on minimalism, but you summarized some very powerful points in a short read. My quietness or thoughtfulness is often misinterpreted as “shutting down” or “icing out,” when what I am trying to do is speak thoughtfully. I like to say fewer words, but more significant words. You nailed all of it! Very nicely done. I can’t wait to read more.
