Die Empty

Unleash Your Best Work Every Day

De: Todd Henry

Narrado por: Todd Henry

Most of us live with the stubborn idea that we'll always have tomorrow to do our most important and valuable work. We fill our days with frantic activity, bouncing from task to task, scrambling to make deadlines and chase the next promotion. But by the end of each day we're often left asking ourselves "did the work I do today really matter?" We feel the ticking of the clock, but we're stuck in first gear, unsure of the path forward and without a road map to guide us.

Here's the hard truth: sooner or later all of our tomorrows will run out, so how we choose to spend today is significant. Each day that we postpone difficult tasks and succumb to the clutter that chokes creativity, discipline, and innovation results in a net deficit to the world, our organizations, and ourselves.

Die Empty is a tool for people who aren't willing to put off their most important work for another day. Todd Henry explains the forces that keep us in stagnation, and introduces a process for instilling consistent practices into your life that will keep you on a true and steady course. It's not about slaving over a project or living on a whim it's about embracing the idea that time is finite and making the unique contribution to the world that only you can make. Henry shows how to cultivate the mindset and the methods you need to sustain your enthusiasm, push through mental barriers, and unleash your best work each day.

Sure to bring a newfound clarity and a sense of urgency to how you approach your work every day, Die Empty will help you reach for and achieve your goals.

Same Old Same Old

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No. Rehashed stuff. Platitudes. Dull reading.

Did Die Empty inspire you to do anything?

Nope.

Any additional comments?

Sounds like a corporate motivational speaker writing a book.

Let’s Make It Happen

Very reassuring! It inspires one to look within and know you can make a difference in this world we live in.

Perfect for my stage of the game

My life coach recommended this book. I am a 59-year-old retired nurse eager to be a good steward of my time, talent and treasure. Die Empty doesn’t offer a catchy slogan or a quick fix. It provides an in-depth opportunity for one to take stock in their past successes and failures and get to work making the remainder of our days count.

A Little Too Abstract For Me

I liked so much about this book, but I couldn't love it because his examples were too abstract for me. Because of that, I had a hard time imagining how I could use some of this information unless I was working in a high level position for someone trying to develop something. If that sentences sounded vague and confusing, that's what a lot of his examples sounded like to me. (This might have more to do with my personal learning style than the author.) I really wanted to love this book. I just needed more concrete information.

Great knowledge for all who need clarity.

Good book, great info. I will recommend this book to my business partners. Oh yea. Great book . Submit this thing
