I don’t know how it is possible for 1 person to produce such a great quantity of quality information. Your fantastic guidance and tips have made a massive difference to my productivity and personal and family happiness. Thanks a lot Leo!

Great info, thanks! Now, another question: I’m so busy reading all these articles about how I can be more productive, I haven’t any time left to do anything. How would you solve that?

I love the irony on #6 from the 20 Biggest article.

“Read Dumb Little Man and Zen Habits and a few others, and be done!”

If that were the case I wouldn’t need to read Zen Habits to find out ways to simplify my life. It would already be simple. I could in fact replace the site with something else and be done with it. Which means that I didn’t really need to read the article which means I was wasting time. Which in turn means that I needed to read the article to find out how to stop wasting time.

Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrr its a mental mobius strip.
