📚✨ Book of the Month Recap: Essentialism by Greg McKeown

🧠 Simplify. Focus. Flourish.

This month, we turned inward to get outward results. In Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less, we were challenged to break free from overwhelm, eliminate distractions, and focus our energy on what truly matters.

“If you don’t prioritize your life, someone else will.”

For poetry business owners, creatives, and entrepreneurs alike — this book was a wake-up call and a roadmap.

🔑 Here are 5 Key Takeaways:

1️⃣ Do fewer things, but do them exceptionally well.

2️⃣ Saying “yes” to everything is costing you more than you think.

3️⃣ Boundaries are your creative superpower.

4️⃣ Clarity creates leverage.

5️⃣ Less but better = more impact.

From cutting back on projects that aren’t aligned, to protecting our creative time, to saying “no” with confidence — Essentialism gave us tools to build poetry businesses with more purpose, peace, and power.

💬 Now we want to hear from YOU:
