El mapa hacia la libertad. September 7, 2010 Manu WR Leí la primera edición de The Four Hour Workweek hace más de dos años. Ahora tengo la ocasión de releer aquel contenido y de aprovechar las experiencias de Tim y muchas otras personas que han logrado cambiar sus vidas a mejor gracias a la información que aportaba la primera edición, contadas en el material adicional de esta edición actualizada y ampliada.
Es un gran libro en el que Tim tira por tierra muchas de las asunciones que tenemos en las sociedades (¿mal llamadas?) modernas y nos anima a romper con convencionalismos y hacernos por fin con nuestras vidas. Para ello, Tim aporta una serie de herramientas con las que poder independizarnos de existencias amarradas a puestos de trabajo sin atractivo con horarios rígidos y, en la mayoría de ocasiones, excesivos, y optar por una vida mejor y disfrutarla a partir de ya.
Totalmente recomendable.

An Excellent Guide to Simplifying Life September 5, 2010 Randall Degges (Los Angeles, CA) 'The 4-Hour Workweek' is a must-read book for anyone who is interested in changing their lifestyle.
Despite the name of the book, this book is NOT about becoming extremely rich, and retiring at 30. The book is about living every day to your fullest potential and constantly enjoying life, instead of putting off the enjoyment until retirement.
The basic idea is that, if you are able to both work remotely and work flexible hours (doesn't matter what profession you're in), than you can eventually apply the rules in this book to your life.
The book preaches several key principles to achieving an ideal lifestyle that allows you to do what you love without becoming a millionaire:
1. Live simply. Don't make unnecessary purchases. Learn to live without instead of with. There have been numerous studies done that conclusively show people who are content with less are happier and enjoy life more than those obsessed with money and material objects.
2. Instead of working madly to make lots of money, instead work only as much as necessary to live your ideal lifestyle. Whether it be living in Thailand, or in NYC. Time is money. By reducing the time you spend making money, you are freeing up your most valuable resource (time), which is truly limited.
3. If you seen an opportunity to free up more time for a cost, then do it. By taking advantage of outsourcing, automation, and various other tools, you can reduce your workload and increase your value.
4. Focus on one thing at a time (whether it be work, fun, or love), and give it your fullest attention and dedication. This will help you to be more productive in smaller amounts of time, which can help you eliminate redundant work from your life.
etc.
Overall, the book is an excellent set of guidelines and suggestions for living a better life.
Life is too short not to read this book.
