About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
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 assumptions of "we can have it all" and "I have to do everything" and replacing them with the pursuit of "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.

Don't think judge the book by the title
Don't think judge the book by the title and think "I already know what's going to be in this book and I'm already practicing it"
It has a lot of thought provoking ideas present inside, very well written. Worth buying :)

Beautiful gem to find your essentialism
Was surprised to hear it finish. But I guess that's the beauty of this book. A monumental task remains, to put it in practice. This book will mean thousand different things to different people. For me it's showing multitude of paths which take over our capacity and few which are necessary to take "NOW".
Definitely will visit this again in future.

the essential one
as the title of book suggest itself, the contents of the book is essential for today's fast and chaotic lifestyle. it helps maself to clear out the noise and focus on what is really important. even if one can not apply all the fundamental of essentialism , if we can manage to drill few of them ,it will be really beneficial to our life.
