Every Thursday I share three useful things to help you turn overthinking into expert thinking. Here are this week’s picks:

1. ​5 elements of an elegant “no” by Ben Meer
2. ​8 approaches for adopting a 'never accept complexity' mindset – a post by Derrick Grant on LinkedIn
3. ​What if you did everything exactly right? A short reflection on finding peace, from my Medium archives

Extra thoughts…

Keeping it simple is hard work.
​
I've learned this many times. Most notably in my career as a UX Designer. Most recently as of last week, when we moved to Liverpool.
​
We're downsizing considerably, which is its own form of simplification. And with that, I've been re-evaluating what's going well in my business, too. Because there's no sense in carrying a bunch of unhelpful stuff to a new place.

So I've been making many lists to help me sort the mess. I've also recently switched to Notion (from Excel and Obsidian), which has been a helpful change, even though it is yet another new thing to figure out.
​
If you're going through a change of any sort, what goes on your list of what stays? And what goes?

As always and in the simplest way possible, I'm here if you'd like help with any of that.
