I've listened to unscripted several times while driving bumper-to-bumper to my 9-to-5 job and back home.
I was recovering from a burn out at the time, trying to get myself standing on my feet again.
And that book gave me the fuel to keep going instead of settling for the average.
@MJ DeMarco, you had me at self actualization.
I was already aligned with most of the core ideas of the book having read the TFM.
But the whole aspect of working your way towards self actualization through unscription, was the vision I lacked.
That perspective clicked with me.
I quit my job a couple of years later to pursue that path.
Now I work as a freelancer to pay the bills. (Yeah, I know, it's temporary, that's why I'm here)
This gives me more time to work on my personal project.
Hopefully it will bring value to the world and take me a step closer to achieving my goals.
It's exactly as you said: Chasing the dream is living the dream
Both books have changed my way of thinking, my actions and consequently my life.
I used to be frustrated and now I know why.
My choices and actions weren't aligned with my vision.
With that cleared up, life has a purposeful meaning again.
And you are the one to thank for bringing that to our attention.
Thank you!
