Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less
Have you ever felt like you were stretched too thin? Have you ever felt both overworked and underutilized? Have you ever felt rushed but unproductive? Have you ever felt like other people's agendas were constantly taking over your time?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, the book Essentialism is the way out. Essentialism is more than just time management or a productivity technique. It is a systematic discipline for determining what is absolutely necessary and then eliminating everything else in order to make the greatest possible contribution to the things that truly matter.
The disciplined pursuit of less empowers you to reclaim control of your own choices about where to spend your precious time and energy by forcing you to apply more selective criteria for what is Essential—rather than giving others the implicit permission to choose for you.
Essentialism isn't just another thing; it's a completely new way of doing everything. It is about doing less but better in all aspects of your lives. Essentialism is a movement that has arrived.
You will learn about the following topics:
- The business fallacy
- The importance of contemplating life's brevity
- The truth about tradeoffs
- The importance of play
- How to Say No in a Respectful Manner
- Prioritization questions for effective prioritization
- The Routine's Power
