There is <i>a lot</i> of practical advice packed into such a short read although my only criticism is not everyone will be able to apply it. Leo Babauta's suggestions on how to set limits, work less and enjoy life more relies on having a flexible lifestyle with more autonomy than the average 9-to-5 job allows. If your profession allows you to be flexible with both your time and your habits, <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3467088-the-power-of-less" target="new"><i>The Power Of Less</i></a> contains solid advice on how you can eliminate unncessary tasks, focus on what's important, and diminish stress to live a happier, more content life.
