The Lazy Person's Guide to Success: How to Get What You Want Without Killing Yourself for It Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In our workaholic world, we'¬?re in desperate need of reminders that the most valuable, productive, and enjoyable moments in our lives are usually those we spend doing the least. Ernie J. Zelinski'¬?s secret of success is so simple you'¬?ll wonder why you never thought of it yourself: work less, think more. In the best-selling THE JOY OF NOT WORKING, Ernie extols the freedoms of joblessness; in THE LAZY PERSON'¬?S GUIDE, he shows how to make work more fulfilling and relaxing by redefining success in terms of happiness. Two books in one, the first for the lazy achiever and the second for the truly lazy achiever, this quirky little guide combines humor and wisdom to provide plenty of reasons to sit back, kick your heels up, and use the power of creative loafing to get the most out of life.
