We can't be our best from too much grind.
Have you forgotten about yourself while trying to be a best friend, partner, parent, or employee? Or have you been in a work environment that took more out of you than you got back? And is there a constant stream of incoming unpleasant news.All this can feel like a grind.
I woke up one day after quietly denying a lot of unhealthy stress that led to burnout and thought there must be a different way to do life than that; there must be a better way.This book is a compilation of 72 easy-to-read, practical Insights on optimizing our human capital from my experiences in high-performance sport, a career in the financial sector, mindfulness, and positive psychology on how to experience more great and less grind
I have enjoyed your weekly insights for many reasons. Besides being interesting, they are thought-provoking, healing, and prompt me to reflect on my life within this world we live in. - Susan Barker.
Great is better than grind. There is a better way, and that is why I wrote these Insights for you.
