Greg McKeown's 2014 book arguing that the disciplined pursuit of less — doing fewer things but doing them better — is both more productive and more fulfilling than the typical modern attempt to do everything.

Makes the systematic case for essentialism as a life design principle — that saying no to almost everything is the precondition for saying yes to the most important thing — providing a philosophical and practical framework for prioritization in a world of unlimited demands.
