The Lazy Genius Way: Embrace What Matters, Ditch What Doesn't, and Get Stuff Done
by

I appreciated the middle-of-the-road approach this book encourages to life, plans, goals, housekeeping, socializing, and so forth, which is: don’t try to do everything perfectly (the “genius� way) but also don’t give up on things that matter to you in a spiral of defeatist thinking (the “lazy� way). It does a pretty good job of giving the reader the freedom to decide what matters most on a list of priorities, and some principles for how to make life easier. That said, it felt like it was treading some very similar ground to other advice books out there, especially “How to Keep House While Drowning,� which I found personally to be a more resonant read.
The tone of this book was very kind, and the author is easy to follow. It just didn’t feel as profound or fresh to me as it might to some.
Thanks to NetGalley and WaterBrook & Multnomah for this digital review copy.
