This blog does not mess around. This site might be a little off-putting at first, because Scott Young is not the coddling type. There aren't any lofty bots of motivation here, only hard, cold methods for getting the most out of your life.

The post titled "Personal Excellence Comes First" really got me thinking hard about my goals and how I'm screwing around. It's tough love. I don't agree with everything here, such as using discomforrt as motivation. If I used that as a technique for getting more writing done, what I produce would probably be all quantity and no quality.

Ok, the layout is really ugly, and the ads are somewhat distracting. But I can forgive all of that because the content is something I'm going to keep coming back for. And the author is pushing his e-books. Nonetheless, all of this can be ignored to get to the (plentiful) good stuff here.
