Riassunto

An inspiring introduction to the most important lesson for today's busy world: the take-away is to take away.

"All we can hope to accomplishby paying attentionis to learn to live with the mystery, become more comfortable with not knowing and try to enjoy life's uncertainty. Every day is a gift, but we often squander it by missing what matters most."
from the Introduction

Every day we are faced with choices that entail saying noand frankly were not very good at it. Whether its the desire to please, get ahead, accumulate or impress, our lives have become so full and so busy that it is hard to determine what we really need and whats really important to us.

The purpose of this book is to help you regain control of the things that matter most in your life. It taps timeless Jewish wisdom that teaches how to "hold on tightly" to the things that matter most while learning to let go lightly of the demands, worries, activities and conflicts that do not ultimately matter. Drawing insights from ancient and modern sources, it helps you identify your core values as well as the opportunities that do not reflect those values, and that you can learn to pass up. It also shows you how to establish a disciplined practice to help you adhere to your choices.

Whether its letting go of resentment, learning to say no at work or to your loved ones, downsizing your diet or asking less of the earth, this book will help you distinguish between the trivial and the profound.
