Essentialism

Get the book:

In today's world, being busy is the new norm.
We have a ton of projects we would like to do, and whenever something new comes up, we try to fit it in our already overflowing schedules.
We believe that if we just work more and work harder, we can do it all.

However, being busy doesn't mean we're actually doing things that are important.
The truth is that most things that we do, aren't important at all, but instead are completely trivial.

The antidote to this overwhelming busyness is essentialism.

Check out Greg McKeown's book, if you want to learn more about Essentialism:

I am slowly learning that some people are not good for me, no matter how much I love them. I deserve someone who is gentle and kind because my soul is getting tired. Realizing that I deserve something good is one of the first steps.

Conclusion:

Essentialism == Art of prioritizing.

I'm at a point where just seeing one of your videos in my recommendations makes me feel motivated and more disciplined and then I click on "watch later" and start working

The video u posted about not waiting to be inspired and just start has helped me more than you know.

Thanks for your hard work on this video. It's really inspiring. My comment:
We have a self-sabotaging system. Alcohol, drugs, laziness, overeating are some of them which are obvious. Moreover, some respectful areas (such as career, science, exercise, art, charities etc) may help the sabotage system, if we don't see our real problems.

But why do we sabotage our life, are we crazy? I think it is a childhood/teenage experience. That time, when we were not happy, we found the comfort in turning out our emotions.

I think we don't need to work hard, we need to get out of our comfort zones (which is really hard). Gradually success comes, we enjoy life more.

Wow watching this video while I am in the middle of reading “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck” is awesome. Key points are the same. I realize that I am not in line with minimalism, because I am all for ESSENTIALISM. Thank you for this!!

I love your content so much when I first saw your videos I saw something about brain detox. I was sticking to my phone the whole day and seeing nothing that could ever help me. I was like 7 hours per day but after watching your videos my phone time got lower. Thank you very much

I've found one word that describe myself better than any other! I've lived this way, and I've actually lost friends, and only have a few left who share a real interest with me and don't require babysitting. I think it's better to lose friends who's interests aren't interesting at all, and thus waste my time to babysit them. Thanks for the video!

I'm waiting for Jim Carrey from "YES Man" to respond to this video 😆

This channel is worth a thousand channels! Plz keep up doing the good work - the important stuff; making such useful videos.

Tried for 3 years to function in a home office jammed to the walls with too many things: 2 desks, reading chair, bookshelves, large monitor, etc. Finally cracked. Sold the reading chair and tossed the 2nd desk. kept only what was essential for getting my work done. Not an earth-shattering move, but essentialist all the same. Also, I bought Greg’s book sometime before that.

Finally! A book that I already finished reading! Thabk u for this summary

[carrcallen]

This is not the definition of essentialism … it’s a powerful concept in psychology and an important tenet of philosophy. The meaning is completely different.

I’m looking to start essentialism, I started minimalism a few years ago
