The Difference Between The Top 1% & Everyone Else…
Any manger worth his salt will tell you that It’s really hard to find top-tier talent.
That’s a fact. It’s also the reason why the vast majority of income is earned by such a small percentage of the population.
What do those people have that so many others don’t?
Clutter is Crippling
I didn’t think I had a problem with clutter.
Don’t get me wrong, I knew my surroundings were disorganized and… well, cluttered, but I thought I was ok with it.
I think everyone is to an extent if they’ll allow themselves to be.

Notes on Work The System by Sam Carpenter
EDIT: Here’s the interview I prepared this outline for: Mixergy (you need to watch it)
Topic: [do this] and [get that]: Implement and refine systems so that you can work less, focus on whats important and earn exponentially more. Sam used systems to go from working gruelling 100 hour weeks, to working 2 hours per week and earning 20x more.
After story: The Oregon based cycling story with the important young man and his voicemail in comparison to Sam’s lack of voicemail… “all those voice mail messages attest to his status and importance, but in the bigger picture, he is a slave to his job. And the people who depend on him are slaves to his presence.”
My Notes on “Life Nomadic” by Tynan
Great Quotes:
What is a digital or modern nomad? “Until now, being a nomad has meant isolating oneself from modern culture. From the early years of nomadic tribes to the more recent phenomenon of self-outcasting adventurers disappearing from society, an element of sacrifice has been bundled with the glory of mobility and freedom.
A modern nomad is a different breed. Instead of isolating himself from society, he does the opposite. He goes and experiences more of the world than he ever could ever experience staying in one place, but is still able to stay connected with people far away from him. A modern nomad isn’t someone who has no home; he’s someone who has many homes.”
