What to expect

With AI upending work and life, the bestselling authors of Smart Brevity offer a one-stop survival guide to dramatically improving your life, work and happiness.

* Toxic complexity clogs our meetings, inboxes, calendars - even in our daily habits. We can do so much more, but first we need to do less.

* Simplify shows you how. It's a step-by-step playbook for spending most of your time doing things that make you feel and perform better.

This urgent manual lets you take control of what is essential in a world where AI might simplify you out of a job. Maximize success by simplifying every aspect of your life. Ruthlessly distill what really matters to you, then clear the space to focus on what you do best.

* Simplify will help anyone thrive, from interns to CEOs.

The authors draw on lessons from founding two hot startups - Axios and Politico - and their years of experience advising Fortune 500 companies. Simplify is packed with advice from some of the world's most successful people - your handbook for eliminating dreary distractions... so you can focus on what matters.
