Separation

Distinguishing essence from refuse.

The Essence

Observation: Not everything you are is valuable. Logic: Separation is the process where you learn to distinguish: What is essential? What is baggage? Here you separate the gold from the dirt. This is the phase of clarity.

The Lever

The Lever: Take inventory of your life. What serves you? What doesn't? Radically separate yourself from everything that doesn't advance you. Keep only the essence.
