See Your Priorities as a River not a Bucket

I listened to this podcast interview (Art of Manliness podcast) with Oliver Burkeman recently, and it was great.  As someone who loves to make lots of long lists (e.g., todo lists, books to read, browser tabs to read), which is overwhelming, I really enjoyed the idea of shifting how I view my lists towards a river of things to explore and enjoy, instead of a bucket that you've got to try to empty as new stuff keeps getting added (give yourself more agency and less stress).  I also really enjoyed the idea of "scruffy hospitality", where you focus on enjoying time with people without the pressure of providing a perfect experience for their visit.

I listened to the Blinkist summary of his new book Meditations for Mortals, and I'm excited to listen to the audiobook sometime soon.
