Focus. Clarity. Now.


Hello Wonderful.


It's been three months since The What Summit, our in-person event that brought our community to life. The feedback was heartwarming but, as hosts, we didn't get to experience any of the programming. We finally spent a day watching video of the sessions and were blown away by the level of talent and wisdom our panelist-friends brought to the day. Stay tuned for more connection events in 2019.

Focus. Clarity. Now.

"Things start out as hopes and end up as habits."

THE WHAT LIST

100% Editorial picks. No pay for play. Ever.


 

The Focus.  

Here are the 9 focus-forming habits to lengthen your attention span from Fast Company that we're putting into practice.


The Clarity.  

We both just finished Great At Work by Morten Hansen, PhD. The author, a former professor at Harvard Business School, studied the habits of more than 5,000 managers and employees to develop his "Seven Work Smarter Practices." If you have a tendency to multi-task or are overwhelmed by constant To Do Lists that range across a variety of projects and goals, this book is your homework. 
 

The Organizer.

Gina prefers digital organizers like Monday.com but Amy has always been a fan of the paper planner. Here's a link to her longtime favorite Desk Diary and a few other great ones
 

The Art Benefit.  

60 artists and their galleries have come together to donate work to support those affected in the devastating Butte County fires where many lives were lost, in addition to an estimated $20 billion in damages. If you're in the market for art, please look here first. Auction ends January 29.
