| Summary, Etc. |
"Founder of Nerd Fitness, Steve Kamb's How To Try Again, a guide to help readers transform their lives by giving up more often, failing faster, and mastering the art of starting over. Some people wake up at 4 AM, run fifteen miles barefoot, and then meditate in an ice bath. THIS BOOK IS FOR THE REST OF US. Transform your life by quitting unhealthy expectations. Transform your life by failing compassionately. Transform your life by trying again differently. The false promises of optimized wellness and productivity are a recipe for personal blame and frustration. Fortunately, escaping this doom loop is Steve Kamb's superpower. Kamb has helped tens of millions make sustainable progress, even when life happens. Blending empathy, humor, and REAL advice, How to Try Again will help you navigate everyday chaos, restart without guilt, and make change that sticks. All while being delightfully, forgivably human"-- Provided by publisher.
