If there’s something missing in your life, it’s probably you.
Modern life is relentless. Your weeks are zipping by in a blur and your weekends provide an all-too-brief respite before you plunge headlong into the next manic episode of your life. The result? Your life feels rather ‘samey’. Same routine, same thinking, same behaviours, same habits, same results.
And maybe that’s fine. But life’s a short and precious gift. It’s too short to be just ‘fine’.
Be Brilliant Every Day will get you to think about your mindset, show you how to ditch those down days and be on form every single day. With a solid understanding of positive psychology and a bit of funny stuff, this book will help you to get motivated, get positive, get happy, and most importantly, how to be all three consistently. And if you put the ‘new improved’ you into practice, it will change your life forever.
Read. Do. Inspire.
