In this book, the author combines deeply personal anecdotes with illuminating scientific explanations to help readers consider their own priorities. With keen insights into what it takes to avoid burnout and to seek more joy and creativity, the author guides readers back to "square one" so they can lead more balanced and truly successful lives.--
