I have to admit it, you’re an amazing inspirational writer. Ever thought of writing a book of essays? (best of zen habits or something?)
I know I’d buy it

Yeah, it’s actually something I’m planning to do. But sometimes I get lazy. :)
Actually, I should have an ebook out sometime soon.

Leo, like Alex said, you must write a book on “Zen Habits for Productivity”. Especially when we read how you’ve streamlined your income to provide and support your beautiful family. Those values are very commendable. You must put in the book how you tuned yourself around - from cigarette smoking to your finances, using simple easy to do things that everyone can do. They don’t need to take a Tony Robbins happy-clappy over the top approach but can achieve incredible fulfilling life change through the steps you’ve taken. Thanks for the great example in how to simplify life to the important things.

Hi Georgio … thanks for the encouragement and wonderful comment. I don’t really feel that the book should be about me so much, although of course I will use myself as an example … I think it should be more about what I’ve learned and how others can apply that to their lives. I really don’t think I’ve accomplished anything amazing … and the things I do are actually very simple, and anyone can do them. I think it was more of a change of attitude, which isn’t always easy but can definitely be done. But thanks again for your encouragement!

Hey Leo! Don’t you love how other people always have ideas on great things you must do with your time!
Here’s a hint for working in productive bursts: squeeze a whole book’s worth of ideas into one page so readers can enjoy a Novel in just a few minutes! I think you’re already familiar with Very Short Novels, but maybe you never thought about them in terms of productivity before!
