Finding Purpose, Meaning and Wisdom Beyond the Midpoint of Life

'A powerful alternative to burnout culture and digital distraction' CHARLES DUHIGG, author of the bestsellers The Power of Habit and Supercommunicators Are the conveniences and distractions of modern life undermining your personal growth and ability to realise your true potential? Each of us has an innate drive for progress and growth. It's why we feel alive and fulfilled when we channel that drive into meaningful goals, be it starting a business, writing a book, learning an instrument, studying a craft or training for a marathon. Excellence is not a destination so much as an energising process of growth and becoming - one that yields our best performances and, every bit as important, our best selves. Except too often the hustle of our demanding, distracting and fad-driven lives works against us, leaving us frustrated, unfulfilled and unable to focus on what really matters. Performance coach and international bestselling author Brad Stulberg offers a fascinating new theory of excellence and why our pursuit of it is integral to personal growth, satisfaction and lasting well-being. Stulberg will help you reclaim your excellence by teaching you how to define, live and work in alignment with your values, cultivate focus and concentration, prioritise consistency over intensity, build durable confidence, and develop the courage to care deeply. Eye-opening, informative and empowering, The Way of Excellence will give you a new perspective on prioritising excellence and building a more fulfilling life around it.

A Guide to True Greatness and Deep Satisfaction in a Chaotic World

The Way of Excellence

'Thubten is a very generous and kind monk who writes with the lived honesty and humour of someone who has experienced the wisdom he shares. His writing is full of inspiration but also the pragmatism needed to form a sustainable practice. He clearly illustrates why we all need meditation and mindfulness in our lives.'- Benedict Cumberbatch We all go through hard times. We can experience moments when life feels like an uphill struggle, leading to unhappiness and stress. Perhaps we are feeling sad, anxious, or are challenged to deal with something bigger, such as a bereavement, a loss, a painful ending or a broken heart. It is during these moments when life feels difficult that we could do with some help with our thoughts and feelings. In HANDBOOK FOR HARD TIMES&nbsp;Sunday Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;A Monk's Guide to Happiness&nbsp;Gelong Thubten teaches us to understand that happiness, kindness and resilience can be cultivated through reframing life's difficulties as opportunities for transformation. Meditation and mindfulness practices help us to access deep reserves of inner strength as we learn how to 'lean into' our suffering. Thubten suggests how we can find meaning in pain and discomfort, transforming deeply ingrained patterns of fear and resistance. As we discover how hard times can enhance the development of mindfulness, compassion and forgiveness, we can develop a fearless outlook on life and lasting, unshakeable happiness. This approachable and practical book, complete with meditations, is designed for modern times, and will be a valuable resource to anyone during times of struggle, but also during all times to encourage and build resilience and help us find inner contentment and peace. 'A most qualified guide in the journey from darkness and turmoil towards inner peace and positivity.' ANNIE LENNOX

Why doing nothing can change your life

The Brain at Rest

From the bestselling author of Hyperfocus, productivity expert Chris Bailey, a new approach to finishing what you start. 'An important new contribution to the genre!' - Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author of Slow Productivity and Deep Work 'A powerful guide to turning ambition into action' - Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit and Supercommunicators Most of us have no problem setting goals. We know what we want, and we have a pretty good sense of what it takes to get it. But consistently making progress until we've reached that goal is the hard part. In Intentional, Chris Bailey presents a new and better way to accomplish your goals. It turns out, the secret to finishing what you start isn't willpower or the latest productivity hack - it's intentionality. Your deepest intentions are your greatest motivating force. By structuring your goals around the things that matter most to you, whether that's feeling secure in your job, having autonomy over your decisions or being in a community, getting things done becomes second nature. Drawing from the latest productivity research and packed full of practical strategies, Intentional will show you how to:<ul><li>Structure goals to increase the likelihood of completion</li><li>Make unappealing, boring or frustrating tasks more attractive to do</li><li>Lower the chance of procrastinating on long-term goals</li><li>Create a system for tracking progress</li><li>Know when a goal isn't for you - and when it's time to let it go.</li></ul> Finishing what you start is more possible than you think. 'The most productive man you'd ever hope to meet' - TED

How to Finish What You Start

Intentional

Die Zukunft ist das, was wir daraus machen!Unsere Gegenwart ist geprägt von einer Dauerkrise, die viele Menschen lähmt und ein Gefühl der Machtlosigkeit hervorruft. Doch die Zukunft ist das, was wir daraus machen, davon ist Magdalena Rogl überzeugt. Wir sind nicht machtlos, denn wir besitzen ein oft übersehenes Werkzeug: Verantwortung. Wenn wir alle beginnen, in kleinen Schritten im Alltag Verantwortung zu übernehmen - für uns selbst, für unsere Mitmenschen, unsere Privilegien, den digitalen Raum, für Gesellschaft und Demokratie -, können wir Großes erreichen und die Zukunft aktiv mitgestalten. Magdalena Rogl spricht aus Erfahrung: Als alleinerziehende Kinderpflegerin musste sie früh Verantwortung übernehmen - heute ist sie erfolgreiche Keynote-Speakerin und eine der relevantesten Stimmen für empathische Führung, gesellschaftlichen Wandel und gelebte Verantwortung in Deutschland. Für ihr Buch spricht sie mit Menschen, die ihre Erfahrungen teilen, konkrete Ideen und Impulse geben und zeigen, wie genau man ins Tun kommen kann. Denn es geht um Haltung und Mut, nicht um Perfektion oder Wut.&nbsp;

Wie wir uns aus der Machtlosigkeit befreien, Verantwortung übernehmen und die Zukunft zurückerobern

Mut statt Wut

All of us are familiar with the unsettling sensation of overwhelm: it's as if there's ever more to do, and ever less time in which to do it. The good news is, even if you can't see it yet, there is a way out. In this liberating new book, award-winning writer and presenter of BBC Radio 4's All in the Mind Claudia Hammond helps us to take the pressure off with a psychological toolkit that is both practical and evidence-based. Each chapter addresses a particular problem that can trap us into feeling overwhelmed - from procrastination to the fear of regret, imposter syndrome, perfectionism and a seemingly never-ending to-do list - and offers science-backed solutions. Calm, clear and convincing, Overwhelmed will give you the tools to take on everything life throws at you.

Ways to Take the Pressure Off

Overwhelmed

You might already consider yourself a stellar conversationalist, but could you be even better? This book will help enrich your life, one conversation at a time. 'Ground-breaking research that changed my life' Mel Robbins 'Reading TALK is like having a conversation with the world's best conversationalist' Angela Duckworth _________ Conversation is at the heart of our relationships and decision-making - but the science behind our everyday interactions, and how to improve them, is little known. In Talk, Harvard Professor Alison Wood Brooks provides fascinating insights into the power of effective communication. She gives you the tools that her MBA students say transform their lives, bringing together psychology, linguistics, sociology and neuroscience in her original framework: T - Topics - including the surprising impact of preparing topics before a conversation A - Asking - why we need to do more (and why we do less than we think) L - Levity - how to find the fun in conversations with anyone K - Kindness - how to be a better listener and not simply pretend to be one! Through her own original research, Brooks shows readers how small changes in how we communicate can make a big difference to our relationships, our careers and our lives.

Ancient Wisdom for a Better Night’s Rest

How to Sleep Like a Caveman

'Two Women Living Together is a wonderfully calming and cosy read. I always adore stories of women who choose to live beyond the confines of cultural expectation-and this book might just be my new favourite!' - Emma Gannon, Sunday Times bestselling author of both fiction and non-fiction, and a former judge for the 2025 Women's Prize. 'Everything about this compelling, curious, beautiful story of two women moving in together, in midlife, is delightful ... I loved every moment!' - Clover Stroud, author of My Wild &amp; Sleepless Nights, The Red of my Blood, and The Giant on the Skyline Quietly radical, full of warmth and wit, Two Women Living Together celebrates carving out your own path, cats, female friendship, and found family. At some point between living alone and becoming single, Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana found each other, and decided to live together in a nice apartment where their four cats would finally have the freedom to run around. Together they redefined what family looks and feels like. At a time housing costs have skyrocketed whilst the birth rates plummets, these two independent Korean women in their late forties share their views on society and its expectations of them. And, intent neither to marry or to live alone, they reflect on the comfort of their cohabiting friendship as it blossoms into a life full of joy and meaning. 'Inspiring' - Evening Standard 'Beneath the warmth lies a radical proposition: that their partnership should be treated like any family.' - Guardian

Two Women Living Together

The Science of Succeeding with People

Captivate

What if the real problem isn't that you doubt yourself, but that no one ever taught you how to use doubt well?
Doubt is often treated as a weakness in leadership. Something to overcome, hide, or silence. Yet whether it shows up as self-doubt or imposter syndrome, doubt carries insight that leaders can't afford to ignore.
In Brilliant Doubt, executive coach Jenny Williams reframes doubt as a critical leadership signal. When understood and used well, it leads to better decisions, stronger collaboration and more effective leadership in complex organizations, particularly in a world where uncertainty and change are constant.
The book introduces three forms of Professional Doubt - self, situational and systemic - shaped by the pressures and realities of modern organizational life. When leaders learn to read doubt rather than push past it, they gain greater clarity, confidence and impact.
At the heart of the book is Active Doubt, a practical approach that helps leaders turn hesitation into insight, uncertainty into movement, and questions into meaningful action.
Brilliant Doubt is for leaders who want to navigate uncertainty with courage and intelligence and who are ready to turn doubt into a strategic advantage.
All change starts with a doubt.

Doubt is the most undervalued leadership quality, and yet it is more essential than ever before. Jenny Williams makes the compelling case for harnessing doubt – your own and others’ – as a catalyst for clarity, creativity and confidence.
