Riassunto

Overloaded? I’ll bet you are.

We all lead busy lives. You fall into bed exhausted at the endof the day, feeling that you’ve got a lot done. Perhaps youare getting lots done.

But is it stuff that really matters? Or is it juststuff? 

It’s time to wise up. You will never clear thatlist.

Get used to the idea that some things will never getdone. Not delayed. Not rescheduled. Not re-prioritized. Butsimply dropped.

And from now on, instead of trying to clear that endless to-dolist, you’re going to do a much smarter thing. You’regoing to just do the important stuff.

And the brilliant thing is, you already have the power to dothis. 

That power is to do less.   

Soon enough, you’ll have the space to enjoy the moment, becreative, find new or better ways of doing things, get ideas, andspot opportunities you would have missed when you were runningaround. 

In short – you’ll be happier. Muchhappier. 

As soon as you stop doing, the power of doing less willbegin to flow.
