About the Original Book:

Most of us want to get our finances in order, exercise more, learn a new skill, and make a higher contribution at home and work. But however much we are motivated to achieve these essential goals, however much we stay focused and disciplined, we don’t seem to be making as much progress as we would like. The way forward, McKeown insists, is not to power through this quandary but to consider new ways of doing things.

Blending the latest research in neuroscience, psychology and behavioral economics with the experiences of people from across space and time, McKeown shows us how we can structure our lives so that we can accomplish our most important work without getting chronically exhausted. Anyone who feels like they are doing everything they can but it’s still not enough will find Effortless a resourceful guide to creating a life that requires a lot less exertion.
