Using a human-centred approach, Busy Is a Four Letter Word looks at the essential relationship between living well and leading well. It aims to end the self-gratifying martyrdom of “busy” culture and works to uncomplicate personal and professional prosperity.
By highlighting topics such as real self-care, rest, wellness, and saying “no” as indispensable to success and productivity, the powerful 5 step ReThink Method in Busy Is a Four Letter Word helps readers get more out of life while also being more productive in their pursuits. In this book, you'll learn:
- How to stop piling on to your to-do list and instead take bite-sized actions that will shift, turn, and restart the next professional or personal season of your life.
- The idea of “martyritis”: consistently taking actions that leave you feeling overwhelmed, overworked, and underappreciated as your default state of being.
- How to create your 5 Star wellness plan to help you rethink your work ethic and create new patterns and routines that allow you to get the most out of life and to thrive while doing less.
With Busy Is a Four Letter Word and Palmer's highly effective ReThink Method at your fingertips, leaders and team members alike can find ways to get more done by rethinking their approach to work and life.
