How to release productivity guilt and embrace the hidden values in our daily lives. Any given day brings a never-ending list of things to do. There’s the work thing, the catch-up thing, the laundry thing, the creative thing, the exercise thing, the family thing, the thing we don’t want to do, and the thing we’ve been putting off, despite it being the most important thing. Even on days when we get a lot done, the thing left undone can leave us feeling guilty, anxious, or disappointed. After five years of searching for the secret to productivity, Madeleine Dore discovered there isn’t one. Instead, we’re being set up to fail. I Didn’t Do the Thing Today is the inspiring call to take productivity off its pedestal—by dismantling our comparison to others, aspirational routines, and the unrealistic notions of what can be done in a day, we can finally embrace the joyful messiness and unpredictability of life. For anyone who has ever felt the pressure to do more, be more, achieve more, this antidote to our doing-obsession is the permission slip we all need to find our own way.

Once upon a time, starting a business meant months of researching, refining business goals and writing business plans, talking to investors and banks, negotiating for loans, and raising money. But today, agile web development practices mean that you can almost launch on an idea and figure it out as you go. At least that’s what authors Jason Glaspey and Scott Kveton and their colleague Michael Richardson did when starting bacn.com, an online bacon retailer. In this mouth-watering tale, they describe their process of starting a business on a shoestring, including the things they did right and the things they did wrong. Bacn.com didn’t make them millionaires — not even close! But the lessons they learned have led to comfortable success on their follow-up ventures. And whether it’s choosing a domain name or selecting the right content management systems, buying and storing inventory or figuring out fulfillment, using social media for marketing or finding a location to host an “epic” party, their stories will help you jumpstart your own web business.

To some, the idea of quitting their day job to start a business is exhilarating. For others, it’s terrifying. After all, a job that produces a steady paycheck can be difficult to give up.

When you generate income from multiple sources, it gives you options, and in today’s world, options aren't just nice to have: they're essential.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 When you see people come up with great business or life ideas, you may chalk it up to luck or natural creativity, but there is a process behind ideas that are beneficial to yourself and society. The first step in the process is to notice problems. #2 If you’re looking to focus on your career, centralize your problems around your career and industry. If you’re looking to focus on just your personal life, centralize your problems on personal situations. #3 When you hear the magic word hate, it indicates a problem. If someone hates something, they are facing a problem. Problems are not always easy to find on the surface level, but if you focus on specific areas of displeasure and listen to what people say, you'll be able to find plenty of problems in our everyday world. #4 As you go through your day, identify problems. Every problem has multiple solutions, so think of each problem as a potential opportunity to come up with a lot of ideas. With practice, the ability to find problems will become natural to you.
