Who doesn't know the graveyard of unfinished projects? Already, 92 percent of all New Year's resolutions are not implemented - and the rest of the year doesn't look any better. Millions of things are started but never completed. The author has tested the common advice against this: getting up earlier, eating only superfoods, and consuming energy drinks in amounts that could have killed a horse. The result: a twitching eyelid from all the caffeine, but not a single goal achieved. Because it's not laziness that's the problem, but an exaggerated obsession with perfectionism and a lack of fun. Or why did you give up playing the piano? Supported by research, Jon Acuff demonstrates how to consistently achieve goals with a bit more joy, by ignoring rules, and simply doing everything differently.
