Achieve everything you want by avoiding work

Are you working too hard and having too little to show for it? Are you fed up with your job, your career path, your boss? Is the stress of work negatively affecting your health and your family life? Or, are you floundering about, in a dead end, not knowing what to do with your life?  

All of us want to work less. And all of us want to be more successful. But can we have it both ways?

The Lazy Way to Success has a startlingly fresh answer. So fresh, in fact, you'll want to slap its face. That’s because The Lazy Way to Success claims hard work is a fraud. It boldly states that hard work is not only unnecessary, but actually counterproductive to success. 

Instead, The Lazy Way to Success teaches you how to achieve everything you want in life by avoiding work. It shows you how to find magical ways where doing less actually accomplishes more. After reading this book, you will come to realize that the key to success is in, believe it or not, not working at all.

Die Welt (Germany)
The most enjoyable book on success to come down the road in a long time! Funny, with philosophical depth. This book is a soothing balm.

Dr. Ichak Adizes (management consultant to top CEOs) Unbelievable! I got hooked on it. I couldn't stop until I was finished. Outstanding book! I'm excited. I want to give this book to anybody who walks. I am in love with your book. 

David Lynch (Four-time Academy Award nominated director)
I read it and I loved it. The Lazy Way to Success is everything you don't think it will be – and more. And even so, it is everything.

Hustler
The Hustler Seal of Approval. Gratzon’s chapters are like music to our ears. Fred’s philosophy flies in the face of America’s work ethic, but there is truth in his lunacy.

Des Moines Register
Very appealing! His advice goes against everything your parents said about success. The light text and accompanying humorous drawings are certainly two men at play.

Chuck Offenburger (columnist)
A hilarious and insightful book about how to become a high achiever – even a rich one – while having a ton of fun and treating those around you right. 

Carla Offenburger (Book Reviewer)
I loved it. It’s a fun read. In fact, it is a really funny book. But the message is serious. I’ll refer back to this book over and over again – and plan on giving it to a few college graduates this spring.

The Independent (England)
Fred Gratzon’s The Lazy Way to Success positions idleness as the secret to accomplishment.

Los Angeles Times
Entertaining! To get ahead, lazy does it. Gratzon has a point.

Economico Valor (Brazil)
Controversial. Playful. Ingenious.

You have to read Fred Gratzon’s hilarious look at the work ethic. I recommend this entertaining, insightful book on how to be successful while still holding onto your inner child, discovering your true calling, and thoroughly enjoying your life.

New Orleans Times-Picayune
Wisdom, wisdom and more wisdom. Gratzon cleverly takes you through his rationale with some pretty impressive arguments. If nothing more, the logic makes you turn the pages. Lots of common sense that will make you stop and think about where you are in life and where you want to go. Bosses and leaders of the world, listen up.
