Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeownMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Many of the ideas were not new to me, but much of the book was thought provoking and changed my mind about what being minimalist is and choosing what is essential.
Only in the here and now are you able to execute. We spend so much time planning for the future or thinking about our past that we fail to execute what is essential in the moment.
This book details how to change your thinking so that you can reduce your activity to what is essential for your goals, your life, and your stuff. Learning to say no. Getting enough sleep. Figuring out what to de-clutter. My favorite question in this book - If you didn't already own it, would you buy it now? I got rid of so many things in my house asking this one question. Things I had been holding on to for years. Things I don't like or use, but I kept because I had spent good money on them.
I received this book for free from Blogging for Books for this review.
