Publisher's Synopsis
A bullshit free approach to happiness and success.
It's time to shift our focus away from a toxic and endless pursuit of more, and instead focus on creating a genuinely healthy, happy, and successful life free of bullshit. To define our lives by personally meaningful and relevant goals - not goals driven by bullshit platitudes, unrealistic expectations, and an exhausting pursuit of more. It's time to strengthen our internal 'Bullshit-O-Meter' (our ability to identify bullshit) and become skilled at differentiating fact from fiction, and misguided advice from valuable insights.
Discover constructive alternatives to reduce stress and create a more rewarding life.
Each chapter of That's Bullshit challenges bullshit habits, practices and advice that have created an excessive focus on 'more' - where anything less than constantly getting more, having more, and being more is considered a failure. To challenge supposed statements of inspiration and misleading and stress-inducing advice that serve only to drive the creation of unrealistic and unattainable goals, poor communication habits, and self-obsession as opposed to self-awareness.
Strategies, ideas and practical tips are provided on how to become a more effective listener, communicator, leader, follower - to drive a deeper and more holistic level of self-awareness. Personal growth is challenged to support the achievement of goals and aspirations - as defined by you - to lead a personally meaningful, successful and balanced life!
The expectation to constantly succeed in all we do is exhausting - to aim higher and higher, to get more, have more and be more.
The result? Excessive and unnecessary stress.
The cost? A rapidly escalating toll on our mental health and wellbeing and reduced personal effectiveness.
