review 1: I can understand why many reviewers have bashed this book. It goes beyond most people's comfort zones. The idea of outsourcing a huge portion of your life is hard to swallow even if you have the money to afford it. Most of the ideas in this book I was already familiar with via Tim Ferriss, Mike Vardy and others in the "less doing/efficiency" industry. But having said all that, I was still genuinely entertained by all of the concepts and I thought that Meisel packaged them in a way that was easy to understand and never felt like it was dragging on. It's certainly a quick read and no one is going to mistake Ari's writing style for anything more profound. If you're curious and you only want to spend a few bucks (or free from the library as I did) give this book a shot. If you... more're really serious about making wholesale productivity changes to your life maybe your money is better spent on one of Meisel's courses through Skillshare or CreativeLive! Or of course JUST GOOGLE IT for you cheapskates.
review 2: Not what I expected from it. Just like other reviewers said: it's all about outsourcing your information to technology or others, so that you can do less. While I fully agree with the notion of being better organized to live your life more fully, I just didn't enjoy this book the way I expected myself to. Best suited for business owners, people who employ others to do their work, and tech savvy people. The suggestions take away the human touch from our daily lives, and that's already at a pathetic level. less
