I have a new system that’s completely revolutionised the way I work. It’s pulled me out of burnout and has HALVED the time it takes me to get things done. Allow me to introduce you to “deep work”. (Next stop: world domination.) Onwards! -> Onwards! ->
I have a great reason for literally only reading one book in the first half of September – I got my work groove back! Since burning out in September of last year, I’ve really struggled with my productivity levels. But after an entire year, I’m finally getting back on track and have been making the most of it as I settle into a new routine. So yes, that initially meant a little bit less reading. And I was OK with that. Thankfully, I found a good rhythm again (and was in bed with a bad cold) so things started to pick up… Onwards! ->
My family were visiting in August so I didn’t expect to read quite so much. I’ll admit I slipped a few shorter ones in there to speed things up a little, but I also ended up reading one particular offering in a single sitting. It’s been a long time since I couldn’t put a book down! Onwards! -> Onwards! ->
I didn’t expect to get much reading done this month, what with season 3 of Stranger Things eating into some of my evenings (that finale!) and being away at a conference for a few days, but it ended up being one of my better months. Onwards! -> Onwards! ->
A jam-packed journey around Nevada, Utah, and Arizona ate into a lot of my time this month so I didn’t devote as much to reading as I regularly would. Still, I read more than I thought… and one was a pretty formidable 500-page beast. Onwards! -> Onwards! ->
