Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin. 

We all know the pressure of feeling like we should be grinding 24/7 while simultaneously being told that we should 'just relax' and take care of ourselves, like we somehow have to decide between success and sanity. But in today's complex working world, where every hobby can be a hustle and social media is the lens through which we view not only others but also ourselves, this seemingly impossible choice couldn't be further from our reality. 

In Working Hard, Hardly Working, entrepreneur and self-proclaimed 'lazy workaholic' Grace Beverley challenges this unrealistic and unnecessary split and offers a fresh take on how to create your own balance, be more productive and feel fulfilled.

Includes practical advice on:

  • The life-changing art of the to-do table: perfect your productivity method and do more of what you love
  • Making your routine work for you: optimise your habits and reap the benefits
  • Getting into and managing your flow: boost your creativity and enjoy your everyday
  • Engaging in effective self-care: how stepping back will help you move forwards

Insightful, curious and refreshingly honest, Working Hard, Hardly Working will make you reflect on what you want from your life and work - and then help you chart your path to get there.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Some good ideas

Good message and points but probably more helpful for those in their 20s and not self employed

I’d recommend

I really enjoyed listening to this book, I don’t think it would be beneficial to everyone but worth giving a go.

Grace is a Gen-Z-nius!

It’s like she reached into my soul and spelled out exactly how I’m feeling, and I’m certain it resonates with others as well!
Highly recommend this book for everyone caught up is mindless hustle culture and dreaming of more. 10/10 would read again (and already started!)
Thanks Grace!

Better suited for younger generation

Might be more interesting to younger and non self employed readers. Great performance but it wasn’t for me.
