Another example from the countries of how to live your best life. This from Sweden, lagom roughly translates into "just the right amount." In other words don't overdo things or under do things to achieve a balance that will make you happier in the long term. This book advocates for balance, simplicity and moderation. Topics covered in this book include work-life balance, food and drink, health, friends, the planet and the management of "things." Swedish design is well know for simple lines and not exactly "minimalism" but less is more. I like the idea of Friday night relaxation. I like the idea of keeping it all together and doing what you can but not more than you can. I see that there are at least 2 other new books about this same topic. Not sure that I need to read another one but the ideas here seem reasonable.
