As high achievers, we’ve been conditioned to believe that the path to success is paved with relentless work. That if we want to overachieve, we have to overexert, overthink, and overdo. That if we aren’t perpetually exhausted, we’re not doing enough. But lately, working hard is more exhausting than ever. And the more depleted we get, the more effort it takes to make progress. Stuck in an endless loop of “Zoom, eat, sleep, repeat”, we’re often working twice as hard to achieve half as much.

One of the most important survival guides

Publisher's summary
"This book is two things. It’s an eye-opener to the fact that we don’t have to do a million things to be productive (or successful). And it’s a coach that helps us trim the fat, get real with our purpose, and start living more intentionally." (Goop)
"Dalton helps listeners by teaching us to focus on the most important things and create our own operating systems that are exclusive to our lives as individuals. By doing this, we can simplify and make life even better." (San Francisco Book Review)
Dalton’s ground-up approach to productivity teaches listeners to identify their real priorities and, in doing so, cut their massive to-do lists down to size by learning to say no to the tasks that pull them away from their North Star-Grateful
Overwhelmed. Do you wake up in the morning already feeling behind? Does the pressure of keeping it all together make you feel anxious and irritable?
Tanya Dalton, CEO and productivity expert, offers you a liberating shift in perspective: Feeling overwhelmed isn't the result of having too much to do - it's from not knowing where to start.
Doing less might seem counterintuitive, but doing less is more productive, because you’re concentrating on the work you actually want to be doing. Through this book, you can learn how to:
- Identify what is important to you and clarify your priorities.
- Develop ways to streamline your specific workflow.
- Discover your purpose.
Named Top 10 Business Book of the Year by Fortune magazine, The Joy of Missing Out is a legitimate action plan for change. Once you reject the pressure to do more, something amazing happens: You discover you can finally live a guilt-free, abundant life.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Do you ride the escalator or do you take the stairs? No matter how you define success, it always requires one thing: self-discipline. But as popular speaker and strategist Rory Vaden explains, we live in an "escalator world", one that's filled with shortcuts, quick fixes, and distractions that make it all too easy to slide into procrastination, compromise, and mediocrity. What seems like an easier path is really much harder in the end - and, most important, it won't take you where you want to go.

For American women today, working out is as accepted as it is expected, fueling a multibillion-dollar fitness industrial complex. But it wasn’t always this way. For much of the 20th century, sweating was considered unladylike and girls grew up believing physical exertion would cause their uterus to literally fall out. It was only in the '60s that, thanks to a few forward-thinking fitness pioneers, women began to move en masse.

Yet despite the test's widespread adoption, experts in the field of psychometric testing, a $2 billion industry, have struggled to validate its results - no less account for its success.

Are you still playing a role you learned in childhood to please others, such as the Good Girl/Boy, the Overachiever, or the Helper? Though these kinds of roles may have gained us attention and affection, they prohibited us from becoming our true selves. People-pleasing—putting others ahead of ourselves to avoid something negative or to get something we want or need—runs rampant in our society. Saying yes when we should say no leaves us stuck in frustrating patterns.

In Your Brain Is a Time Machine, brain researcher and best-selling author Dean Buonomano draws on evolutionary biology, physics, and philosophy to present his influential theory of how we tell and perceive time. The human brain, he argues, is a complex system that not only tells time but creates it; it constructs our sense of chronological flow and enables "mental time travel" - simulations of future and past events.

In Everyday Trauma, neuroscientist Dr. Tracey Shors examines trauma with a focus on its pervasive nature - how it can happen at any time, through big or small events, and how it often reappears in the form of encoded memory.

Until recently, science offered few answers to these existential questions. Journey of the Mind is the first book to offer a unified account of the mind that explains how consciousness, language, the Self, and civilization emerged incrementally out of chaos.

Edith was a woman ahead of her time—unmarried, she was a distinguished medical researcher, as well as an accomplished violinist, translator, and poet. The two quickly began spending weekends together, talking philosophy, Catholic mysticism, and, of course, architecture over wine-soaked picnic lunches.

Ostrander pairs deeply reported stories of hard-won optimism with lyrical essays on the strengths we need in an era of crisis.

It makes me feel like less of a bad mom
When I started out as a mother I had so many aspirations for the kind of stay at home mom I would be, and let’s face it, I’m not that woman. Being a stay at home mom doesn’t bring me joy. My kids being excited to see me after a day out by myself that I earned after a week of arguments brings me joy. Time alone by myself to work on my aspirations and spend time with my friends outside of motherhood brings me joy and I’m thankful I had this book to help me realize I don’t HAVE to do it all if it doesn’t make me happy.

Contradictory, unfinished.
This book felt like unedited ramblings. She often looped back, skipped details that made the author uncomfortable, and contradicted things she had said earlier. She says to do more but also to do less, and she’s a night owl supposedly, but she wakes up at 4:30 am to do her most important work, she says it’s not all about work productivity yet that’s mostly what she talks about. She seems confused and desperate to understand herself. I hope writing this helped her because it did not help me. The only reason I gave it 3 stars is because occasionally there would be a valuable insight, and because I have read/heard worse. With real thought and editing she might have been able to make this book work.

This book is sooo great! It gave me some very important tools that helped me smooth out my life as a female entrepreneur. I was able to share it with a friend who got a lot out of it as well.
The narration is great! I love hearing it from the author herself.

this is one of those few books that I struggled to finish and wish that I had seen if my library had a free copy instead of purchased. I was expecting a lot more out of this concept than what was actually given. It's an okay read but unfortunately wouldn't recommend

Have JOMO not FOMO!
I’m a magician... you know a wife, mom, full-time employee, daughter, friend, school and church volunteer, neighbor, and in charge of morning carpool... just a few things. Not much. Tonya describes me over and over again in her book, The Joy of Missing Out: Live More by Doing Less.
Because of her, I am now a recovering To Do List junkie. Before reading this book the only way I felt like I was truly accomplishing anything was by crossing off a task on my list. I'm one of those people who would add things that I already completed just because it made me feel better about my day. Now I focus on my priorities vs my to dos. Just one of the many game changers I took away.
This book was EXACTLY what I needed at this point in my life. It was real and forced me to look at my week (my 168 hours) differently. Tonya didn't just tell me what I needed to do though, she gave me the tools to work through how to make those changes. Day-by-day I'm implementing her suggestions. JOMO is truly a liberating shift in perspective and I highly recommend it to anyone feeling the pressure (and who isn't).
Even though I received an advance reader’s copy from Nelson Books for an honest review, I purchased the audiobook as well. Everything shared in this review are my own thoughts.

Loved it!
I have been a fan of Tanya Dalton for years - first for her planner products, and then her podcast, and now her book! There is indeed joy in missing out! The simplicity of the message is what is needed in this 'do more' and 'do it all' society. I definitely suffer from the feeling of overwhelm, and she has a calming effect on helping you to focus on what is important.
