I recently started a new book about Churchill's leadership during the war and how he taught the British people “the art of being fearless.” It's by my favorite author, Erik Larson, who writes some of the most riveting nonfiction I have read (this coming from someone who doesn't typically enjoy nonfiction). ⁠
〰️⁠
This particular quote stuck out to me because it feels very relevant to what is happening in the world today. We can't lose sight of how seriously this pandemic is affecting every aspect of our lives, but we also can't lose hope either 💜⁠
〰️⁠
If you'd like to check out this book, it's called The Splendid and the Vile. If you're into historical nonfiction, I would also recommend The Devil in the White City by the same author. ⁠

Have you read any good books during the quarantine? Leave me some recs 😁⁠

I love this quote from Isaac on Episode 053: 💬Y

I love this quote from Isaac on Episode 053: 💬Your problem isn’t going to be that you’re not going to be able to find something to do. The problem is that you’re going to have so many things that you can do, that it’s going to be impossible to choose from them. And so because of that, you get overwhelmed and then you procrastinate because you get anxious and all these sorts of things. and so you put it off and you become “lazy.” 💬
〰️
If you’ve ever felt like your to-do list is so full and pulling you every direction that you are too overwhelmed to get anything done, or you find yourself putting things off because the end goal seems unattainable, or you feel like there are too many opportunities in life to choose from, so you end up making no choice at all…then this is the episode for you. Tune in to learn how Isaac got over his lazy tendencies and now actively works towards being a go-getter! ✨Link in bio
