simple saturday links 2/28/10 (sunday edition)
Sorry about the delay on the Simple Saturday Links. It has been a crazy weekend that has seen me coach three hockey games in approximately 24 hours. Needless to say, it’s been a busy week and weekend as I prepared my team for this tournament.
However, hockey season is essentially over now so I should have some more time to concentrate on writing. This week’s links are a little bit old but I wanted to give them the credit they are due anyway.
As always, I’d love to get to know you via Twitter, Google Buzz, or even samspurlin AT gmail DOT com. Also, please consider getting automatic updates via RSS or email. Thanks!
becoming minimalist: find a rational minimalism that works for you-- “Rational minimalism” is the principle idea behind the ebook that Joshua wrote (and I reviewed here) called Simplify. I really love the idea that minimalism will not look the same for everybody. It all depends on the reasons you are living a more minimalist lifestyle and it is something I’ve written about several times here.
far beyond the stars: the secret to focusing your digital attention– Focus is vital to nearly everything worth doing while at the same time is incredibly elusive and difficult to train. There are some good tips here written by Everett.
you, simplifed: refocus of the site and upcoming plans– Charley writes about how he is going to treat the ebooks he is sent to review. This strikes a chord with me because I’m in a similar boat. I’ve had several excellent ebooks sent to me in hopes that I will read them and review them on my site. On the one hand I want to help out those writers that I’ve met by promoting their books while at the same time I don’t want to turn thesimplerlife.net into a book review site. As a compromise, I think I will start doing short reviews during my Simple Saturday Links posts. That way I don’t use one of my normally scheduled posts for review while still promoting those books I think are helpful.
