Thanks for these insightful lessons, Addy. I especially appreciated:

6. Saying no opens up time to say "yes" to what's important.

11. Reading deeply feeds the soul more than skimming widely

12. Healthy friction from intellectual sparring partners helps you question assumptions and motivates you to improve.

Jordan, I'm so glad you found value in the lessons I shared. It's rewarding to know that they provided meaningful takeaways for you.

I agree that saying "no" is crucial for protecting time and attention for what truly matters. It's all too easy to overcommit ourselves otherwise. As for reading deeply versus broadly, that's an excellent point as well - depth fuels the mind and spirit in a way that skimming can rarely match.

Wishing you a happy new year ahead!
