"Most of us live with the stubborn idea that we'll always have tomorrow. But sooner or later all of our tomorrows will run out. Each day that you postpone the hard work and succumb to the clutter that chokes creativity, discipline, and innovation will result in a net deficit to the world, to your company, and to yourself. Die Empty is a tool for individuals and companies that aren't willing to put off their best work. Todd Henry explains the forces that keep people in stagnation and introduces a three-part process for tapping into your passion: Excavate: Find the bedrock of your work to discover what drives you. Cultivate: Learn how to develop the curiosity, humility, and persistence that save you from getting stuck in ruts. Resonate: Learn how your unique brilliance can inspire others"--

Finished this book during the COVID- 19 quarantine. 31 March , 2020 11:45 PM.“It's easy to get lost and wake up many years later in a strange land asking yourself, “where am I, how did I get here, and how do I go back ?” “This is one of the few nonfiction work-related books I've read, which is not my to-go-to genre, so this book was like a sweet introduction to that.Die empty is a book that discusses how to treat your job the way it should be treated, it claims that unlike most books and opinionsthat demands to focus on personal life and treat our job as just 8 hours in which we go, do a certain task and go home.This book says that our job should be more than that.whether you love or hate your job, I believe you can find yourself somewhere in this book. the most amazing thing about it is that it tells you the things that you already know and believe but afraid to say even to yourself, and also mentions new things that open new perspectives you didn't know existed before.Another thing I liked about this book is that it first explains the problem, then tells you what you can do about it.It actually gives you practical -hard- solutions, in addition to the practices at the end of each chapter.Overall I think this book was amazing and I believe that everyone should read it :)Quotes that I loved and highlighted on my kindle :Waiting for the permission to act is the easy way out
Don't go to your grave with your best work inside you. Choose to die empty.You may be doing great work, and you may be doing a lot of work, but you're not making progress in a way that is personally meaningful.
and waaaay to many other quotes.
