What Matters Now: Upgrade Your Life

In a world where time has become a priceless commodity, often times we couldn’t help but ask ourselves “What Matters Now“.  Needless to say, the ability to prioritize tasks appears to be paramount for everybody.  In a recently released ebook organized by Seth Godin, more than seventy big thinkers, authors, & entrepreneurs chimed in their thoughts about this topic. You can download the free PDF version here from Seth’s blog.  

Meanwhile, here is my 2 cents for the idea behind this book.

The book, by itself, is an innovation.  I like the idea to gather thoughts from people who have succeeded in their own walks of life.  What Matters Now is an encapsulation of different small topics, ranging from Generosity (by Seth Godin) to Vision (by Michael Hyatt) to Strengths (by Marti Barletta) to Poker (by Tony Hsieh) to Power (by Jeffrey Pfeffer) to Evangelism (by Guy Kawasaki) to Compassion (by Mitch Joel) to Thnx (by Gary Vaynerchuk) to Attention (by David Meerman Scott) to Expertise (by Aaron Wall) to Productivity (by Gina Trapani).

Here are some of my favorite featured authors and their books:

• Elizabeth Gilbert - Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage
• Kevin Kelly - New Rules for the New Economy
• Chris Anderson - Long Tail, The, Revised and Updated Edition: Why the Future of Business is Selling Less of More
