Pick Three

Více o knize

In this motivational handbook, the New York Times bestselling author of Dot Complicated challenges the notion of a "well-balanced" life, asserting that success lies in being well-lopsided. In today's demanding world, we’re led to believe we can do everything—maintain friendships, excel at work, spend time with family, stay fit, and get enough sleep. Randi Zuckerberg argues against this myth, stating that striving for balance often results in frustration and inadequacy. Instead, she proposes the concept of "Pick Three," allowing individuals to focus on the most important areas of their lives each day. This idea originated from a viral tweet, and in this book, Randi expands on her philosophy to inspire a wide audience—from entrepreneurs to busy parents and students. The practical guide includes anecdotes from her own career, illustrating that perfect balance is unattainable. It also features insights from notable professionals in Silicon Valley, new mothers seeking permission to prioritize family, and recent graduates grappling with unrealistic expectations. Randi emphasizes that it’s acceptable not to have it all every day, encouraging readers to embrace a well-lopsided life through her empowering approach.
