The Lazy Genius Way

If you need a comprehensive strategy for a meaningful life but are tired of reading stacks of self-help books, here is an easy way that actually works. No more cobbling together life hacks and productivity strategies from dozens of authors and still feeling tired. The struggle is real, but it doesn’t have to be in charge.

With wisdom and wit, the host of The Lazy Genius Podcast, Kendra Adachi, shows you that it’s not about doing more or doing less; it’s about doing what matters to you. In this book, she offers thirteen principles that are both practical and purposeful, like a Swiss army knife for how to be a person. Use them in combination to “lazy genius” anything, from laundry and meal plans to making friends and napping without guilt. It’s possible to be soulful and efficient at the same time, and this book is the blueprint.

The Lazy Genius Way isn’t a new list of things to do; it’s a new way to see. These Lazy Genius principles—such as Decide Once, Start Small, Ask the Magic Question, and more—offer a better way to approach your time, relationships, and piles of mail, no matter your personality or life stage. Be who you already are, just with a better set of tools.
