Is your life full of stress? Of course it is. "Without a doubt, many of us have mastered the art of spending most of our lives worrying about everything." But is it possible not to let the little things drive us crazy? In this insightful and humorous book, popular author Richard Carlson shows us ways to distinguish the important from the insignificant. The hundred strategies he proposes (such as "Learn to live in the present," "Choose your battles wisely," "Instead of being right, choose to be kind," "Resist the urge to criticize," "Think about what you have and not what you don't have," "Change your relationship with problems," "Live today as if it were the last. It might be"), all tried and effective, help us face problems that seemed "unsolvable," not to be derailed by "difficult challenges," and cultivate a more calm and harmonious way of life.
