A blueprint for taking our lives back from the clutter, noise and unnecessary work that fills a modern day. Babauta lays out simple, concise steps for growth through increased productivity and teaches readers the art of living simply. He encourages the reader to place limits on themselves, his tips include: Focus only on the three most essential projects on your plate. Limit oneself to one large goal at a time. And keep emails to just five sentences. Babauta's lessons enable readers to do less, be more effective, get more done and simplify their lives.
How can you determine which tasks have the most impact? There are generally two good ways of doing this.
1. Examine your task list.
Take a look at everything on your list and ask yourself the following questions about each one: Will this have an impact that will last beyond this week or this month? How will it change my job, my career, my life? How will this further a long-term goal of mine? How important is that goal? From these answers, you can determine which items will have the most impact over the long term. While this sounds like a tedious process, it actually gets very easy with practice, and soon you'll be able to do it in just a few minutes.
2.Start with your goals.

读完The Power of Less 的最后一页，我才发现自己原来这么贪婪——我想做的事情甚至连自己都数不清。 我有好多好多想要培养的好习惯： 每天早上7点起床 为每一本读完的书写不少于100字的书评 每天能花至少10分钟运动 每天早上和睡前各看15分钟圣经 每天检查电子邮件不超过3次 ...

前些日子读完Leo Babauta的The Power of Less，内有一论深以为然，曰：要拒绝want，只留need。 只是近日实践中，又有点疑问，即：want难道不也是一种psychological need？纯粹依靠need生活，与其说是禅的生活，不若说是机器人的生活。譬如做爱，要说只允许need的...

这本书英文难度很适中，我这种菜鸟读来都没有太大困难。然后道理很浅显，不过适用度还是蛮高的。不过老美写书是都套用一个模子吗，怎么好几本书到结尾处都是一个论调呢。 Anyway， 大道理上还是借鉴度很高的。 以下读书笔记 There has never before been an age in which w...

有很多已经熟悉的观点，但读出的新意是自知的基础上从小程度自觉，limit the essentials

看完这本书，我意识到生活中很多细节都亟待改进。看完容易，开始改变会难得多，那我就从写一篇书评开始吧！

虽然和我同一时间从不只做一件事的理念背道相驰，但也许以后哪天可以试一试。可以和《记事本圆梦》《当下的力量》一起看。

讀台版《少才是力量》。行文直白，條列敘述各點簡化步驟，更像許多實作技巧的手冊集，有點瑣碎。主軸就是盡力簡化生活與行事、精簡出重要有益(具目標意義)的事，並養成專注其中的習慣，限制無價值的時力耗費。習慣從微小的改變開始，一個月只專注養成一個習慣，如每天運動5分鐘，逐步進化累加。

读这本书，也许只需要3个小时。把书里的方法作为练成习惯，需要几年。每个章节的内容，都值得花100天练习。

简单是极致的复杂。 更少的东西，更少的要求，更少的义务……我发现这能使我的快乐和效率最大化。 大多数人都忙于无关紧要的事情。他们专做小事，把钱浪费在自己不需要的东西上，把时间浪费在无关紧要的琐事上，把精力浪费在担心他人的意见上。 别这样，不然会毁了你美好的生活。
