Book SynopsisOverloaded? I ll bet you are. We all lead busy lives. You fall into bed exhausted at the end of the day, feeling that you ve got a lot done. Perhaps you are getting lots done. But is it stuff that really matters? Or is it just stuff? It s time to wise up.
Trade Review'In this thought-provoking book Fergus O'Connell encourages the reader to examine their work and life and to identify what really matters and where you should place your attention...Highly recommended!' (Hot Brands, Cool Places, August 2013) What a seductive title the author Fergus O'Connell - whose other books include How to Do a Great Job and Go Home on Time - has really cracked this one. And the promises he makes are big too. If you read the book and do the things that it suggests, then you will not only feel less stressed, but will also stop feeling guilty for leaving the office having only done half the things on your 'to-do' list, and will find great swathes of time opening up for you. What's not to love? (Third Sector, September 2013) The Power of Doing Less is succinct and focused, wasting no time in getting to its point, standing out in the over-populated world of self-help literature by embracing the power of saying No . (Business Uncovered, November 2013)
