Summary:
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. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so as to make the highest possible contribution towards the things that really matter. Essentialism is a whole new way of doing everything. It's about doing less, but better, in every area of life.
