Podcast – Essentialism How to Pursue Less with Greg McKeown

The Disciplined Pursuit of Less

In this episode, I speak with New York Times’ Best-Selling author Greg McKeown about how to practice the disciplined pursuit of less. Learn how our culture has taught us to do more and to be more. Know that in the process this pursuit of undefined success yields a great many failures.
Greg shares the findings of his 15-year study on the most successful corporations and individuals and how our lack of focus and purpose, coupled with a culture that never allows us the space to think has created the habit of unidentified failure. Very interesting stuff!
