Most improvement plans start with a list of things to add: another habit, another tool, another commitment. This one starts with what to take away. It walks through why the mind defaults to addition even when subtraction works better, how clutter of any kind (schedules, possessions, obligations) quietly taxes your energy, and a practical method for identifying what to remove first. Clear-headed, grounded, and genuinely relieving to hear.
