How to Be Good at Life

If you’re putting in the work, trying to build better habits and still not seeing results, the problem could lie deeper – in the ‘systems’ that govern our everyday lives.

While habits are great building blocks, mindlessly piling them up leads to burnout. To make sustainable life changes, we need a stronger foundation. We need systems that are thoughtfully designed, holistic and intentional.

Ben Meer’s transformative new approach breaks down just that, showing you how to:

1. Create simple, flexible systems that suit your specific life goals.
2. Cut the surface-level solutions and tackle your problems at the root.
3. Master ‘System Sunday’, the breakthrough weekly ritual of slowing down and re-evaluating your life across the Seven Life Engines: Health, Emotions, Mind, People, Career, Money and Environment.

Every chapter comes with a ready-to-use and easy-to-follow system. Whether it’s your career, finance, fitness, relationships or creative projects, if you’re backed up by resilient systems, you can focus on truly living and enjoying life.

For fans of James Clear, Cal Newport and Oliver Burkeman, How to Be Good at Life provides the tools to move beyond isolated and unorganized habits, empowering you to live by design instead of by default.
