(I.e., a low-maintenance biz that would throw off cash and could be bought for $1M plus (or maybe even less?)).

And I work for myself! That said I do do fewer meetings now and have switched off auto send receive of email and will definitely buy the new book. One thing that would be interesting (but time consuming for you) would be to see whether you could take someone from the traditional accepted way of working (which lets face it has spectacularly failed) and mentor them to a new and fulfilling way of like. My own preference is not to make lots of money, but to work less and to spend more time on my creativity. Blog posts for me: 1. The Not-To-Do List: 9 Habits to Stop Now 2. How to Do The Impossible: Create a Paperless Life, Never Check Voicemail Again, Never Return Another Phone Call… 3. How to Never Forget Anything Again I liked the idea of How to Lose 20 lbs. of Fat in 30 Days… Without Doing Any Exercise, but frankly I got bored to tears of eating lentils almost every day. Tim - I live my life vicariously through you, but even I get small nuggets that make my life easier.

I'd love to be able to hop on the site and read an article I haven't read before more easily. Best, S Hi Tim,

How about having a ‘random article’ button or an archive of all your posts? I’d love to be able to hop on the site and read an article I haven’t read before more easily.

Best,
