Beyond Busyness
Description
"Too many people have fallen into the busy cycle that Peggy so accurately and honestly portrays. This book is the wakeup call you need to get back to living."-- Seth Godin, author of The Song of Significance FINALIST FOR THE 2024 BOOK EXCELLENCE AWARD FOR WOMEN'S HEALTH
Busy is not better. Break the cycle of "just getting stuff done."
If you're feeling unfulfilled at the end of each day because you are busy but never seem to have time for what truly matters (a phenomenon called time poverty), you're not alone.
As a recovering "busyness addict," corporate performance expert Peggy Sullivan's struggle with the cycle of burnout and anxiety--leading to divorce, two totaled cars, a heart attack, and even accidentally eating cat food--led her on a quest for life outside busy . . . a sweet spot where productivity, happiness, and self-care can coexist.
Her search led her to create a transformative framework for taking back control of your time and your life that has helped individuals, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, small businesses, and Fortune 500 companies such as Google, Bank of America, and Blue Cross Blue Shield get their employees off the busy treadmill and align their time and work with what's truly important.
Grounded in deep research, including the results of a first-of-its-kind 2023 Busy Report, her three-step Busy-Busting Process has been proven to eliminate unintentional busyness, ignite the power of happiness, and unlock a more meaningful life.
Beyond Busyness provides a simple, data-backed, and actionable approach to balancing peak performance, self-care, and happiness without sacrificing one for the other.
