THE LIFE-CHANGING NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • MORE THAN TWO MILLION COPIES SOLD • Now in a 10th anniversary edition featuring a new introduction and bonus 21-day challenge. “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.

Have you ever found yourself struggling with information overload? Have you ever felt both overworked and underutilised? Do you ever feel busy but not productive? If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is to become an Essentialist. In Essentialism, Greg McKeown, CEO of a Leadership and Strategy agency in Silicon Valley who has run courses at Apple, Google and Facebook, shows you how to achieve what he calls the disciplined pursuit of less. Being an Essentialist is about a disciplined way of thinking. It means challenging the core assumption of âe~We can have it allâe(tm) and âe~I have to do everythingâe(tm) and replacing it with the pursuit of âe~the right thing, in the right way, at the right time'. By applying a more selective criteria for what is essential, the pursuit of less allows us to regain control of our own choices so we can channel our time, energy and effort into making the highest possible contribution toward the goals and activities that matter. Using the experience and insight of working with the leaders of the most innovative companies and organisations in the world, McKeown shows you how to put Essentialism into practice in your own life, so you too can achieve something great.

Do you ever feel like you're on the brink of burnout? You want to contribute more but lack energy, running faster without getting closer to your goals? As high achievers, we often believe that success requires relentless work, leading us to overexert and overthink. This mindset can leave us feeling more exhausted than ever, stuck in a cycle of "Zoom, eat, sleep, repeat," where we work harder but achieve less. However, getting ahead doesn't have to be this difficult. There is a better way: instead of pushing ourselves harder, we can seek an easier path. This approach offers actionable advice for making essential activities simpler, allowing you to achieve desired results without burning out. You will learn how to turn tedious tasks into enjoyable rituals, prevent frustration by solving problems early, set a sustainable pace, make one-time choices that simplify future decisions, streamline processes by removing unnecessary steps, and maintain relationships more easily. The effortless way isn't about being lazy; it's about being smart. While not everything in life can be made easy, we can certainly make it easier to focus on what truly matters.

The intricacy of modern life has created a false dichotomy between things that are 'hard and important,' and those that are 'easy and trivial.' Everything has become so much harder than it ought to be. But, Greg McKeown says there is a third alternative. In Effortless , he offers practical strategies for making the most vital tasks the easiest ones. Honed over the better part of a decade, these strategies include- Asking 'What Step Can I Remove?' (accomplish more, in fewer steps) ; Having the Courage to Be Rubbish (prioritize progress over perfection) ; Deciding What 'Done' Looks Like (don't keep running after you pass the finish line). McKeown's philosophy of essentialism has helped thousands to eliminate nonessential activities and focus on the few that really matter. Working out what is essential is the first step - making these tasks effortless is the next. Effortless will show you how.

"A thought-provoking, accessible, and essential exploration of why some leaders (called "Diminishers") drain capability and intelligence from their teams while others (called "Multipliers") amplify it to produce better results"--Provided by publisher.

Focusing on the principle of Essentialism, this 90-day planner encourages readers to streamline their efforts and prioritize what truly matters. It offers structured guidance to help individuals reduce distractions and enhance productivity across various aspects of life. By implementing its strategies, users can achieve more meaningful outcomes while minimizing unnecessary tasks, leading to a more fulfilling and balanced lifestyle.
