We collect new-and-improved ideas, but don't prune the outdated ones. Every day, across challenges big and small, we neglect a basic way to make things better: we don't subtract. Klotz's pioneering research shows us what is true whether we're building Lego models, cities, grilled-cheese sandwiches, or strategic plans: Our minds tend to add before taking away, and this is holding us back. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut we have a choice--our blind spot need not go on taking its toll. \u003ci\u003eSubtract\u003c\/i\u003e arms us with the science of less and empowers us to revolutionize our day-to-day lives and shift how we move through the world. More or less.","brand":"Flatiron Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50013263266042,"sku":"9781250249876","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0840\/1253\/1962\/files\/imageloader_76ee9552-729c-4352-b451-615441b81e93.jpg?v=1786133671","url":"https:\/\/mindsourcebooks.com\/products\/subtract","provider":"Mind Source Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
