What Matters Now (some motivation for the new year)

Gina Trapani from Smarterware posted about a compilation of thoughts and inspirations that Seth Godin has put together for us to consider for the new year.  Since several authors I enjoy reading were listed, I read a bit of the free online book and received some great motivation and inspiration. 

Each page of the book is authored by someone different, and contributors range from Eat, Pray, Love author Elizabeth Gilbert to Wired editor Chris Anderson to The War of Art author Steve Pressfield to 37Signals founder Jason Fried.* The assignment was to come up with a 10 to 200 word essay or picture on a big idea that matters now.

Another author, Hugh Macleod caught my eye since he has written a good deal about creativity.  Gina Trapani wrote on the subject of personal productivity which is particularly relevant as we consider New Years’ resolutions.  Here is a screenshot from her contribution:
