Keeping your promises, carrying out plans, and checking items off your to-do list is definitely pleasant. But sometimes things go wrong, and what you planned just can’t be done. Timur Zarudny and Sergey Zhdanov work through how to deal with difficulties and see the matter through to the end. They teach you to listen to yourself and explain why it’s so important to give up the attempt to achieve everything at once—and finally relax. The book describes problems in managing personal and work projects, techniques for overcoming obstacles, ways to avoid burnout on the way to your goal, planning tools, and a rationale for how all of this works in the brain. It’s a book for everyone who has started something at some point, didn’t finish it, and now is afraid to mess up again.
