Rework shows you a better, faster, easier way to succeed in business.
Most business books give you the same old advice: Write a business plan, study the competition, seek investors, yadda yadda. If you're looking for a book like that, put this one back on the shelf.
Read it and you'll know why plans are actually harmful, why you don't need outside investors, and why you're better off ignoring the competition. The truth is, you need less than you think. You don't need to be a workaholic. You don't need to staff up. You don't need to waste time on paperwork or meetings. You don't even need an office. Those are all just excuses.
What you really need to do is stop talking and start working. This book shows you the way. You'll learn how to be more productive, how to get exposure without breaking the bank, and tons more counterintuitive ideas that will inspire and provoke you.
With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who’s ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs they hate, victims of "downsizing," and artists who don’t want to starve anymore will all find valuable guidance in these pages.

“断舍离”是由日本杂物管理咨询师山下英子提出的人生整理观念。 所谓断舍离，就是透过整理物品了解自己，整理心中的混沌，让人生舒适的行动技术。换句话说，就是利用收拾家里的杂物来整理內心的废物，让人生转而开心的方法。其中，断=断绝不需要的东西 ，舍=舍弃多余的废物 ，离=脱离对物品的执着。
断舍离非常简单，只需要以自己而不是物品为主角，去思考什么东西最适合现在的自己。只要是不符合这两个标准的东西，就立即淘汰或是送人。
通过学习和实践断舍离，人们将重新审视自己与物品的关系， 从关注物品转换为关注自我——我需不需要，一旦开始思考，并致力于将身边所有“不需要、不适合、不舒服”的东西替换为“需要、适合、舒服”的东西，就能让环境变得清爽，也会由此改善心灵环境，从外在到内在，彻底焕然一新。
