Hello Everyone!

I have good news, bad news, and more good news.

The first part of the good news is things are going well!

Since the previous newsletter, we have:

• Celebrated my wife’s 30th birthday

• Moved my mother-in-law in with us

• Began Publishing articles with my friends (More on this later)

• Started studying for the LSAT (Law School Admittance Test)

• Read through 750/1000 pages of Arthur Schlesinger’s JFK biography

All this while taking care of the two kids over the summer, training for a 5k, and getting roughly 7.5 hours of sleep each night.

This brings me to the bad news.

One of my grails of productivity and high performance is recognizing that you are about to become spread too thin BEFORE you burn out.

I recognized this as happening along with writing for the Mastery Minute Newsletter.

I will have to step back from writing this newsletter for a season, at least until the kids return to school.

Thank you for understanding this and for your patience.

Lastly more good news, I will be writing more frequently with a venture with some of my friends at Managing Geeks.

We will be writing about ways that we are improving our performance while living fuller lives. It’s a project I am very excited about and looking forward to what it becomes.

Anyway, I hope you all are doing well and I will grace your email inboxes again once school starts.

In Mastery,

Matthew
