LESS: ACCOMPLISHING MORE BY DOING LESS
Book ID/图书代码: 09778008B26986
English Summary/英文概要: A certain kind of busyness is crucial to life, allowing us to earn a living, create art, and achieve success. But too often it consumes us and we become crazy busy, nonstop busy, and we expend extraneous effort that gets us nowhere. Marc Lesser’s new book shows us the benefits of doing less in a world that has increasingly embraced more — more desire, more activity, more things, more exhaustion. Less is about stopping, about the possibility of finding composure in the midst of activity. The ideas and practices that Lesser outlines offer a radical yet simple approach to transforming a lifestyle based on endless to-do lists into a more meaningful approach that is truly more productive in every sense.

“Less is more, as the old saying goes. Author Marc Lesser takes this to heart in his new book, Less: Accomplishing More by Doing Less. ’Too often we mistakenly believe that doing less makes us lazy and results in a lack of productivity,’ Lesser writes. What it really does, he argues, is make us better appreciate the things we actually do get done. The author offers a ’Less Manifesto’ aimed at getting more of those kinds of things you can’t put your hands on: patience, love, kindness, generosity, and quiet self-reflection.”---Body + Soul magazine
