Summary

As a nation we know how many days are lost through sickness or strike action every year. Bizarrely, we haven’t a clue – and we don’t even try to measure – how many days are lost through badly run projects/initiatives/undertakings. 
Zero Waste is a goal, a process, a way of thinking that profoundly changes our approach to resources and production. This is a practical, how-to-book with examples, templates and checklists. The process described is a simple, straightforward, step-by-step, proven-to-work one which can be easily measured and can lead to substantial results.

    Do you check your account every day and feel like you're always losing money? Worried the next recession will crash your portfolio? Pulling out your hair while the daily news fills you with fear? 
Then you are a VICTIM OF INFORMATION OVERLOAD! 
 This book provides a simple trading strategy to Preserve And Grow Your Wealth by filtering the noise to get more valuable information in less time, reducing your stock research and trading effort by over 99%, and betting on long-term value creation to achieve financial success! 
We are told the money managers on Wall Street who spend all day checking every stock price movement, every CEO tweet, and every company filing footnote have an edge in the stock market... But the pixelated truth is that information has mathematical limits: zooming into a single blurry pixel of an image tells you nothing about the big picture – the stock market is no different. And even if we did know every detail of the business, the laws of nature tell us we can't predict the future stock price in a complex marketplace anyway! 
In "Stop Checking The Price" you will LEARN HOW TO:Follow the 1st Law of Investing for maximum long-term compounding… And why the "risk-return trade-off" is backwards. Use "80-20 Rule" to cut your research time and stock trading effort down by 99%. Filter bad apples (stocks) before they spoil the whole barrel (portfolio). Steal a page from the venture capitalist's playbook for explosive growth… And how to beat Warren Buffett! Set a timer and evaluate any stock in 60 seconds from a data snapshot.  
Don't get lost in the blurry pixels – ZOOM OUT!

    Rob, Dom and Mikey were fed up with the corporate treadmill.  When they decided to change careers, they looked for a website  to help them escape - except there wasn't one. So they started  their own. Three years later and they have started a movement  called Escape the City. Over 100,000 people have joined www.escapethecity.org in  pursuit of exciting and unconventional careers. They are the  first online start-up in the world to raise more than £500,000  in investment equity crowdfunding - and they did this entirely  from their own membership.     The Escape Manifesto is the book that the guys wish they had read  three years ago on the London Underground when they were  commuting back and forth from their corporate cubicles. It is an  inspirational call to action, packed with practical advice and  encouragement. If you work in a corporate job that doesn't make you  tick and you have ever wondered whether there is more to life,  this book is for you. Step off the corporate treadmill - find an  exciting job, start your own business, or go on a big  adventure. Stop dreaming, start planning and do something  different!

I'm so excited!" - Andre  "I lost track of the number of times I stopped to read out  passages to my wife which expressed the exact same thoughts and  emotions as Id been feeling myself, its always good  to know youre not the first to have felt this way.
