As creative people, we have ideas. Don't Read This Book focuses on how to make choices about everything you do in your daily creative practice and life. The book follows the 'To Don't List' method: When you say 'no' to one idea, you have more time to execute another one. In short: the more you subtract, the more focus and time you get.

Dies ist kein Buch über erschreckende Zahlen. Dies ist ein Buch voller Geschichten über die Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft, die Einblicke geben, wie wir unsere Welt gestaltet haben und gestalten können. Einfach, indem wir Entscheidungen treffen. Und hier kommt die To-Don't-List-Methode ins Spiel:Es gibt viele Herausforderungen, vor denen wir als Menschheit stehen. Aber wenn man sich einen klaren Überblick verschafft, wird es einfacher, zu verstehen und Lösungen zu finden. Und das ist es, was kreative Menschen gut können. Und die gute Nachricht ist, dass wir in den meisten Fällen nichts hinzufügen müssen, sondern Dinge subtrahieren können. Lassen Sie Dinge weg. Retten Sie die Welt, indem Sie nichts tun!

Don't Buy This Book is the sequel to the highly successful Don't Read This Book - Time Management for Creative People. Like its predecessor, it uses the ToDon'tList method to help you make the right choices - choices that help you achieve your goals as a creative entrepreneur.

How do you decide what you will do today - and what you won't do? There simply isn't time to realise every brilliant idea and to execute every little task. And as we cannot create extra time, we need to make choices.

When times are particularly difficult, and you are likely to slip into despair, some of the greatest pop songs can provide true comfort to make it through the pain. The problem with advice in general is that we often don't take it. The great thing about advice songs is that you can kick back and listen to someone else coach you through a tough situation while rocking out at the same time.
