Struggling? You're in the right place.

In a world that's obsessed with fast hacks, quick wins, and Instagram-perfection (cue "Everything is Awesome") struggle has become a taboo. A sign that something's gone horribly wrong. But what if we've got it all wrong about getting it wrong?

What if struggle isn't a battle to fight, a trap to avoid, or a sign of weakness? What if struggle is precisely where the magic happens - where we do our best, most important work?

Whether you're wading in treacle, waiting for the storm to pass or just damn tired of the hustle, this thought-provoking exploration will shine a surprising new light on the truth, beauty and opportunity hidden in life's shittier moments.

Author of the award-winning 'How to be Really Productive', Grace Marshall is known for her "refreshingly human" approach to productivity. Featured in The Guardian, Forbes, Huffpost and BBC Radio, her work as a Productivity Ninja has taken her from Norway to New York, helping thousands of people - from startup founders to corporate managers, artists to engineers, students and CEOs - to replace stress, overwhelm and frustration with success, sanity and satisfaction.
