This book is two things. It's an eye-opener to the fact that we don't have to do a million things to be productive (or successful). And it's a coach that helps us trim the fat, get real with our purpose, and start living more intentionally-Goop

Dalton helps readers by teaching us to focus on the most important things and create our own operating systems that are exclusive to our lives as individuals. By doing this, we can simplify and make life even better- San Francisco Book Review

Dalton's ground-up approach to productivity teaches readers to identify their real priorities and, in doing so, cut their massive to-do lists down to size by learning to say no to the tasks that pull them away from their North Star-Grateful

Overwhelmed. Do you wake up in the morning already feeling behind? Does the pressure of keeping it all together make you feel anxious and irritable?

Tanya Dalton, CEO and productivity expert, offers you a liberating shift in perspective: feeling overwhelmed isn't the result of having too much to do -- it's from not knowing where to start.

Doing less might seem counterintuitive, but doing less is more productive, because you're concentrating on the work you actually want to be doing. Through this book, you can learn how to:

• Identify what is important to you and clarify your priorities.
• Develop ways to streamline your specific workflow.
• Discover your purpose.

Named Top 10 Business Book of the Year by Fortune magazine, The Joy of Missing Out is chock-full of resources and printables. This is a legitimate action plan for change. Once you reject the pressure to do more, something amazing happens: you discover you can finally live a guilt-free, abundant life.

In this highly anticipated book, beloved author Jen Hatmaker parlays her own triumphs and tragedies into a sigh of relief for all normal, fierce women everywhere. Whether it’s the time she drove to the wrong city for a fourth-grade field trip (“ Why are we in San Antonio? ”) or the way she learned to forgive (God was super clear: Pray for this person every day, which was the meanest thing He ever said to me. I was furious.), she offers a reminder to those of us who sometimes hide in the car eating crackers that we do have the moxie to get back up and get back out. After all, this race is not a contest—there is enough abundance to go around—and

you are not in competition with your peers

your seat at the table is secure, and

you have indelible gifts to offer.

Each of us can choose to live undaunted “in the moment” no matter what the moments hold, and we really can lead vibrant, courageous, grace-filled lives.

Wall Street Journal Bestseller

Have you ever wondered why we spend so much time and energy thinking about the big challenges in our lives when all the evidence proves it’s actually the little things that change everything?  That’s right…  Absolutely everything.

Little Things embodies Andy’s own approach to life and work, detailing for the first time some of the exclusive material that he uses to teach and coach some of the most successful corporations, teams, and individuals around the world. In his unique humorous style, Andy shows how people succeed by actually going against the modern adage, “don’t sweat the small stuff”.  By contrast, Andy proves that it is in concentrating on the smaller things that we add value and margin.

Discover a new perspective and a game plan for meeting various challenges, such as:

• Managing life in a society that seems to be constantly offended by something or someone
• Creating change that is permanent and not short term
• Dramatically increasing results by harnessing the fraction of margin between second place and first
• Understanding our spiritual connection with God and how that affects planning and outcome
• Identifying the very moment when asking the question why? multiplies the success of an endeavor
• Recognizing the smallest details that ensure the greatest success

World-class pro golf instructor Brad Brewer shares the wisdom and insights he gleaned from golf legend Arnold Palmer over the course of their more than twenty-five years of friendship. Get to know the "King of Golf" through Brad's eyes and those of other golfers who competed hole-by-hole with Palmer. Enjoy their stories. Relive their most competitive moments. Most importantly, cultivate principles and attitudes that can help make you a winner at whatever you do.

These quick, easy-to-read chapters let you step inside the mind and life of Arnold Palmer to glean insights that can boost your own trajectory toward a sucessful, satisfying life.

A More Beautiful Life walks readers through setting HEART Goals, a proven framework that starts with helping you better understand yourself not by tracking and measuring everything to death but by meeting you right where you are.   

Traditional goal setting sets us up for failure. Starting from a place of desired outcomes, we attempt to answer the question, “Where do I want to end up in life?”   

Then we attempt to follow a plan that tells us to run in this direction and track our progress with journals, spreadsheets, and complicated tools. Often the plan is too long, too hard, and too elaborate. It’s not flexible, fluid, or dynamic­–in other words, nothing like real life. We focus too much on outcomes, letting the end justify the means, and often forget who we are in the process, missing the point of goal setting altogether. We need a system that allows us to embrace who we are and let that understanding guide us toward a better life. 

In A More Beautiful Life, Whitney English shares HEART Goals–a system that starts with what matters most to you, never forcing you to adopt arbitrary goals and rules. The process matters, not just the outcomes. This system frees you from comparison and allows you to be authentically yourself. It helps you gain confidence as you make the progress that comes from having done your best instead of the depressing discouragement that comes from comparing yourself to the performances of others. You won’t have to become someone else to get what you want.  

• H – Help Yourself
• E – Empower Yourself
• A – All Your People
• R – Resources and Responsibilities
• T – Trade

This is an integrative approach to help you create a more meaningful life that is all yours. You won’t feel imbalanced or off-center as you pursue one area of success, fearing it will cost you somewhere else. Without any striving, your goals will be aligned with where you want to go in life. You won’t need to completely change who you are to follow the system. No more deadlines. No more tracking. No more nonsense.
