Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

in his early 20s, Steven C. Brandt drove his bride west in a leaky ’57 Chevy convertible. They lived four lives together there. Their first one was in Silicon Valley. He co-founded a small company; they had and raised two boys; and sold the company after a dozen years.

The four moved to Tahoe City, CA to “experience mountain living with nature in the High Sierra.” One son and three grandchildren still live there.

Steve was invited to teach one graduate course at the Stanford Business School, one time. He went for a year and continued on the faculty for twenty-one years. “I loved teaching…but did miss nature.”

He retired at 53. Now empty nesters, the pair resolved to seriously "repot” themselves. They did. They moved to tiny San Juan Island in the Pacific Ocean between Washington State and Canada; built Circle B sheep farm; became ingrained in local matters; and explored parts of the Inside Passage to Alaska aboard their wooden boat, Spirit. After eighteen years of island living, Steve’s wife was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia.

They returned to Palo Alto and began nearly a decade of caregiving and receiving. She died on Christmas Eve, 2016. Over these four lives, Steve wrote nine popular books—non-fiction and fiction, a hundred articles, a newspaper column, and, most recently, a book of poetry.

5.0 out of 5 stars A gem of a book......

One doesn't normally think of an author of business books writing such a tome as "Simplicity 101-110" yet famed Peter Drucker produced several fiction and non-fiction books in addition to his well known business writing. Steve Brandt may be the new Drucker! "Simplicity 101-110" title caught my eye. Familiar with Steve's previous business writings, I was newly addicted to eBooks on my iPad2, so I bought it. As one who has a few decades on his body, the thought of simplifying one's life is a recurring theme for my wife and myself. I don't generally read so-called 'self help' books but this is anything but that. "Simplicity" is a very well organized, well written mirror into the things that clutter up our lives. It is a true GEM that I devoured in two sessions. Anyone will benefit from Steve's "Noun Count"......I sure have and I recommend highly this book you will long remember.

Steve Brandt does a nice job of simplifying a rather complicated issue -- simplicity. Very few of us ever notice as our lives evolve from carefree and simple to complex and hectic. But one day we wake up and realize that managing all of the things, places and relationships in our lives require a lot of work. Simplicity 101-110 looks at the past choices we've made -- and choices we have if a greater degree of simplicity is needed. I found it to be a surprisingly quick -- and simple -- read that helped me think about choices that I have in terms of how and where my time is best spent. Highly recommended!
