Joy's Reviews > Get Your Sh*t Together: How to Stop Worrying About What You Should Do So You Can Finish What You Need to Do and Start Doing What You Want to Do

I read Sarah Knights first book and loved it and this is terrific too! I will write more about it soon!

Here are some of my favorite parts of this book -

Sarah's advice about being the best partner you can be. She talks about having a relationship relay to see "who can be nicer, more helpful, or more loving on any given day."

I also like the section titled Selfish is not a four-letter word. "You can't give of yourself to others if there's nothing left of yourself to give." "Happiness is a goal in and of itself."

"Accept that failure is an option. Your energy is better spent on accomplishing goals in the here and now rather than worrying about failure in the abstract. And if you do fail, it's not the end of the world."

One of the most important parts for me, is the section that's called Just say no to being perfect. I'm a perfectionist and I struggle with this all the time. Sarah lists Twelve steps for defeating perfectionism on page 242.

I really liked this book. Now my goal is just to remember her advice and put it into practice!
