How to identify essentials

  1. Identify actual behaviors
    • Track your daily actions, what do you actually do?
    • Tools/Envs are not the end goal, they just help action happen.
  2. Eliminate non-essentials
    • Instead of reducing what you have, start from nothing and add back what you need.
    • If you can’t complete an action without the tool, the tool is essential.
  3. Keep only the essentials.
    • If it’s not an important action, it’s not an important tool.
