IntroductIon to
MInIMALISt workdAy
Over the last year I’ve accomplished a couple of things:
1. Quit my day job, became location independent.
2. Start living with less than 100 things.
3. Built a profitable business around a blog.
4. Written two best-selling e-books which completely support me.
Throughout this time, I managed to keep my work schedule down to less than
2 hours per day, on avarage. Yes, some weeks I worked 10 hour days, and oth-
ers I simply didn’t work at all. In the end though, I don’t actually work that
much anymore. My goal is to help you do the same.
This e-book took me 4 hours to write and edit, and 2 hours to produce.
Maybe I’m super human, but I don’t think so. We waste a lot of time, and that’s
why we work so much.
Over the last year I’ve received hundreds of emails from readers asking how to
reduce their work schedule. I’ve written a number of blog posts on the topic,
and both of my e-books weigh into the issue. I’ve been interviewed about the
minimalist workday by major newspapers and blogs.
All of this has made me conclude that we want to work less, so I’ve put this e-
book together to help us do just that.
AverAge AMerIcAnS
The average American works 7.9 hours a day, that’s just under 2,000 hours a year.
I’d like to argue that much of that time is wasted, sitting at a desk, doing stupid
work that doesn’t matter.
Also, two weeks of vacation a year is a crime, and you know it.
I think this is one of the most important issues of our time. The world changed,
and how we use our time is much more important than how long we sit at a desk.
It’s time for a revolution in the way we think of work. I hope you agree with me.
why thIS e-book IS
free
I have published two other e-books in the last year, both of them I
charged money for. I honestly don’t need much more money at this point,
so making you pay to learn how to work less seems like extortion to me.
You’re already being held hostage by a corporate system, being forced to
work endless hours for low pay. To charge you money to learn how to opt-
out would be like sticking a hot poker in an open wound. I won’t do that.
So I’m giving this away for free. If it helps you, consider buying one of my
other e-books. I’d also love if you sent this e-book to as many people as
you think can benefit from it. Thank you.
My e-books are here, if you feel like checking them out after reading:
Minimalist Business
The Art of Being Minimalist
hunterS And gAthererS
We’ve been told since day one that we were supposed to sit at a desk for 8 hours a day, but
there’s always been another way.
There are ways to master the art of time, and the best way to do that is to become a hunter.
A hunter spots opportunities and greets them... this, above all else is the winning strategy
for working less.
We all used to be hunters, so believe it or not it wie i.6871a53sceillayouy I871a greee’y
