As someone who’s always overcommitted (and overwhelmed) on things, I really like the idea of consciously stopping to do things that are of ‘low value’. The question has always been about how to tell which activity is low value, and this book attempts to answer that.
Parts one and two had a lot of gold nuggets for me - they might not have offered a completely new information for me, but they gave me a new perspective on looking at things. The suggested steps to come up with a ‘stop doing’ list were also very handy and easy to follow.
Part three, in my opinion, was a bit of deviation. It mostly covered the operational side of things, such as how to provide training, automate things, hire the right talents, and separate from the wrong ones fast. This part still contained a lot of valuable info, even thought it wasn’t directly related to ‘stop doing’ list (it was still relevant though, as we could only completely stop doing important things if either someone else would do them (delegation) or we had a self-running system to do them (automation)).
Great book - very practical, easy to understand, easy to follow!

If you can find things to stop doing, and you make sure you use the time you free up to grow your business, then this book could help you. It might be a repeat of information that you can find from other sources but it is a concise and well reasoned push. I've mainly added this to my reading list to remind me that I now have no excuse for not stopping doing stuff.
