" Essentialism will give you richer, sweeter results and put you in real control, giving greater precision to the pursuit of what truly matters." -- Forbes "In this likeable and astute treatise on the art of doing less in order to do better...McKeown makes the content fresh and the solutions easy to implement. Following his lucid and smart directions will help readers find 'the way of the essentialist.'" -- Success "Do you feel it, too? That relentless pressure to sample all the good things in life? To do all the 'right' things? The reality is, you don't make progress that way. Instead, you're in danger of spreading your efforts so thin that you make no impact at all. Greg McKeown believes the answer lies in paring life down to its essentials. He can't tell you what's essential to every life, but he can help you find the meaning in yours." --Daniel H. Pink, author of To Sell is Human and Drive "Entrepreneurs succeed when they say 'yes' to the right project, at the right time, in the right way. To accomplish this, they have to be good at saying 'no' to all their other ideas. Essentialism offers concise and eloquent advice on how to determine what you care about most, and how to apply your energies in ways that ultimately bring you the greatest rewards." --Reid Hoffman, co-founder/chairman of LinkedIn and co-author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Start-up of You "As a self-proclaimed 'maximalist' who always wants to do it all, this book challenged me and improved my life. If you want to work better, not just less , you should read it too." --Chris Guillebeau, New York Times bestselling author of The $100 Startup "Great design takes us beyond the complex, the unnecessary and confusing, to the simple, clear and meaningful. This is as true for the design of a life as it is for the design of a product. With Essentialism, Greg McKeown gives us the invaluable guidebook for just such a project." --Tim Brown, CEO of IDEO "In Essentialism, Greg McKeown makes a compelling case for achieving more by doing less. He reminds us that clarity of focus and the ability to say 'no' are both critical and undervalued in business today." --Jeff Weiner, ‎CEO, LinkedIn " Essentialism is a powerful antidote to the current craziness that plagues our organizations and our lives. Read Greg McKeown's words slowly, stop and think about how to apply them to your life--you will do less, do it better, and begin to feel the insanity start to slip away." --Robert I. Sutton, Professor at Stanford University and author of Good Boss, Bad Boss and Scaling Up Excellence " Essentialism is a rare gem that will change lives. Greg offers deep insights, rich context and actionable steps to living life at its fullest. I've started on the path to an Essentialist way of life, and the impact on my productivity and well-being is profound." --Bill Rielly, Senior Vice President, Intel Security, Entrepreneurs succeed when they say "yes" to the right project, at the right time, in the right way.

Sutton, Professor at Stanford University and author of Good Boss, Bad Boss and Scaling Up Excellence.

It is truly the right book at the right time. - Dave Ulrich, Professor, University of Michigan School of Business and Partner, the RBL Group "While everyone else is still leafing through Lean In or Outliers , get a competitive jump on the new year with....Essentialism... learn how to identify the right things, focus on getting them done, and forget the rest.

Synopsis
THE LIFE-CHANGING NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * MORE THAN TWO MILLION COPIES SOLD "Essentialism holds the keys to solving one of the great puzzles of life: How can we do less but accomplish more?"--Adam Grant, bestselling author of Think Again Essentialism isn't about getting more done in less time. It's about getting only the right things done. Have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Are you often busy but not productive? Do you feel like your time is constantly being hijacked? If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is the Way of the Essentialist . Essentialism is more than a time-management technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution toward the things that really matter. By forcing us to apply more selective criteria for where to spend our precious time and energy, the disciplined pursuit of less empowers us to reclaim control of our own choices, instead of giving others the implicit permission to choose for us. Essentialism is not one more thing to do. It's a whole new way of doing less, but better, in every area of our lives. Join the millions of people who have used Essentialism to change their outlook on the world., INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER Have you ever felt the urge to declutter your work life?

The Way of the Essentialist isn't about getting more done in less time. It's about getting only the right things done. It is not a time management strategy, or a productivity technique.

By forcing us to apply a more selective criteria for what is Essential, the disciplined pursuit of less empowers us to reclaim control of our own choices about where to spend our precious time and energy--instead of giving others the implicit permission to choose for us. Essentialism is not one more thing--it's a whole new way of doing everything. A must-read for any leader, manager, or individual who wants to do less, but better, and declutter and organize their own their lives, Essentialism is a movement whose time has come., THE LIFE-CHANGING NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - MORE THAN TWO MILLION COPIES SOLD "Essentialism holds the keys to solving one of the great puzzles of life: How can we do less but accomplish more?"--Adam Grant, bestselling author of Think Again Essentialism isn't about getting more done in less time.
