Was there ever a time you felt overextended?
Do you feel underused and overworked at the same time?
Are you often occupied but underproductive?Do you often feel as if the goals of other people are taking over your time?
The Way of the Essentialist is the path out if any of these apply to you.Getting more done in less time is not the goal of the Essentialist Way. It's about doing just the appropriate tasks. It is neither a productivity method or a time management approach. It is a methodical discipline for identifying what is truly necessary and then getting rid of everything that isn't in order to contribute as much as possible to the things that actually matter.
The purposeful pursuit of less gives us the ability to take back control over our decisions about where to spend our valuable time and energy by compelling us to use a more discriminating standard for what is Essential, rather than implicitly granting others the right to make such decisions on our behalf.
Essentialism is a whole new method of doing things, not just one more thing. Essentialism is a movement whose time has come; it is a must-read for every manager, leader, or person who wants to learn how to do less, but better, in every aspect of their life.
