Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I love these guys and what they stand for. This book just isn't a good example of their work, perhaps. This book focuses briefly on 5 areas of your life to improve to have happiness [I'm not sure how these 5 ideas relate to minimalism, so it was kind of weird]. I think their ideas are solid, and if someone could do what they say in this book, I believe it would improve their life dramatically. The problem is that the book doesn't actually give you any kind of road map or instructions on how to accomplish what they tell you to accomplish. In the interest of keeping the book "minimal", they don't go into detail. So, for example, one chapter is about improving your relationships and getting rid of destructive relationships. Which I can agree would be a helpful thing. But there are no ideas or instructions on how you actually would go about doing that? The chapter on finding your passion vs your crappy job - cool. I wanna do that! How do I do it? I still have no idea, after reading this book cover to cover. I found all the chapters like that, honestly, except the one on healthy living. That one has very good detail - and will be completely overwhelming for the average American. They recommend a very restrictive diet [one which I already eat and which I agree 100% will radically improve your health] and a very active lifestyle [which I also agree with]. The health advice is not going to feel "minimal" to the sedentary person who is eating the Standard American Diet though. So... I love the ideas in this book. But I am no closer to achieving any of them or even having a clue on how to do that after reading this book.
