This book gets to the heart of why we know what to do to have an amazing life but stop ourselves from being fulfilled and successful.

The latest wisdom from researchers, self-help experts and prosperous, happy people cuts through the confusion around stepping out of your comfort zone, provides compelling reasons for how habits can beat procrastination and explains how to stop worrying what others think.

This is a clear, uplifting guide that will immediately help anyone who is struggling with day-to-day life in this banana-pants crazy world.

In addition, you will uncover easy ways to tap into your intuition, rediscover your creativity and dream big.
