Being Lean

Being lean means living efficiently - not wasting time, energy and money on the unimportant. As the line between work and home life gets irretrievably blurred, we can now take advantage of a single, holistic, less-stressful approach to living and Michelle Leong shows you how.

Lean is a well-known and scientifically proven idea that has transformed businesses for decades. It is a methodology for focusing on what is really important. More recently Marie Kondo has shown how we can be happier with less ‘stuff’ in our lives.

Now, for the first time ever, lean business expert Michelle Leong shows how you can apply the lean approach to your entire life, not just your workplace or your closet. Being lean means efficient living and not wasting time, energy and money on the unimportant. 

As the line between work and home life gets irretrievably blurred, we can now take advantage of a single, holistic approach to living.

This book allows the reader to gain an advantage on the day, every day. It subtly changes the thought process for aspects of life we rarely consider doing differently or perhaps did not even think we could change – everything becomes more efficient, from chores to food and from shopping to hobbies. 

Learn to live lean for a happier and less stressful way of living!
