Summary
You’re making thousands of decisions a day. You’re fighting algorithms designed to steal your attention. You’re managing passwords, subscriptions, and deadlines—complexity your brain was never built to handle. And somewhere in there, you’re supposed to exercise, eat well, and maintain friendships.
No wonder life feels harder than it should.
The happiest and most successful people don’t have more willpower than you. They’ve learned a skill most of us were never taught: building systems. This book is the missing manual.
Ben Meer—dubbed “The Systems Guy” by Forbes—spent years studying what separates people who consistently thrive from those who merely survive. Drawing on insights from behavioral science and systems thinking, he introduces DRIVE, a five-step method for turning any goal into a system that works. How to Be Good at Life gives you the full toolkit to:
- Go beyond habits to build systems for everyday routines and projects
- Design systems across your seven Life Engines: Health, Relationships, Career, Money, Emotions, Mind, and Environment
- Access 40+ plug-and-play systems you can implement immediately—including System Sunday, the weekly ritual to keep your life running smoothly
- See the hidden methods behind the success of Seinfeld, Serena Williams, Hans Zimmer, Beyoncé, Andy Warhol, and more
- Discover that the payoff isn’t just productivity, but a sense of calm and lightness
Maybe you’ve dreamed of starting a side hustle, getting in shape, or finally taking control of your money. This book shows you how to make progress inevitable.
The gap between who you are and who you want to become? It’s just a few systems you haven’t built yet.
* This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF of charts, visuals and an appendix from the book.
