Abstract:

"Be productive without sacrificing peace of mind with the Lazy Genius strategy of focusing on what really matters and ignoring what doesn't. If you need a comprehensive self-help strategy but are tired of reading stacks of self-help books, here is an easy way that actually works. No more cobbling together life hacks and productivity strategies from dozens of authors and still feeling tired. The struggle is real, but it doesn't have to be in charge"-- Provided by publisher.

Adachi shows you how to be productive without sacrificing peace of mind. Her strategy is not about doing more, or less-- it's about doing what matters to you. By focusing on what really matters to you, and ignoring what doesn't, you'll discover a better way to approach your relationships, work, and piles of mail. Live by your own 'shoulds' -- not someone else's. -- adapted from back cover

Summary

Being a Lazy Genius isn't about doing more or doing less.It's about doing what matters to you .

"I could not be more excited about this book."-Jenna Fischer, actor and cohost of Office Ladies podcast

The chorus of "shoulds" is loud. You should enjoy the moment, dream big, have it all, get up before the sun, track your water consumption, go on date nights, and be the best.Or maybe you should ignore what people think, live on dry shampoo, be a negligent PTA mom, have a dirty house, and claim your hot mess like a badge of honor.

It's so easy to feel overwhelmed by the mixed messages of what it means to live well.

Kendra Adachi, the creator of the Lazy Genius movement, invites you to live well by your own definition and equips you to be a genius about what matters and lazy about what doesn't. Everything from your morning routine to napping without guilt falls into place with Kendra's thirteen Lazy Genius principles, including-

. Decide once
. Start small
. Ask the Magic Question
. Go in the right order
. Schedule rest

Discover a better way to approach your relationships, work, and piles of mail. Be who you are without the complication of everyone else's "shoulds." Do what matters, skip the rest, and be a person again.
