Synopsis

Essentialism presents a systematic approach to identifying what truly matters and eliminating everything else. McKeown argues that success comes not from doing more, but from doing the right things. The book introduces the disciplined pursuit of less but better, teaching readers to distinguish between what is merely good and what is absolutely essential. Through practical strategies and real-world examples, it shows how to escape the trap of trying to do everything and instead focus energy on the vital few activities that create the most impact.
