The freedom of saying 'no' to everything that isn't absolutely essential. In 'Essentialism' by Greg McKeown, we dive into this very concept. The book argues that we're living in an 'Age of Excess' where we are overwhelmed with choices, obligations, and information. McKeown challenges us to reverse this trend by adopting Essentialism, a systematic discipline to distinguish the vital few from the trivial many. He suggests that we should focus only on what is truly important and eliminate everything else. This way, we can make our highest possible contribution towards the things that truly matter in life. The book encourages us to question our assumptions about 'having it all', and redefines success. The journey towards essentialism requires constant editing, choosing, changing, and pausing to reflect.So, if you're feeling overworked, and under-utilized, explore the way of the Essentialist and discover the joy of less but better.
