Love Your Work, Love Your Life

Summary

Chris Barez-Brown, author of SHINE, brings us a new book which inspires you to set your own rules at work, and make your job work for you.

'Life and work are intrinsically linked. They are not separate; they are one.

If we want to live an extraordinary life, we have to make our work equally extraordinary.

When your work resonates with purpose, you jump out of bed every morning, excited by the possibilities the day holds for you. Everything else in your life seems to have a glow about it, and you exude much more personal shine.

My aim in writing this book is to help you feel like that every day. To help you make your work work for you. To feel truly free.

Reading FREE will:
-Remind you that you are fantastic and have the ability to do amazing things.
-Show you that work is your slave, not the other way round.
-Help you make work your ticket to an extraordinary future.

Put you in the driving seat and show you a route to freedom.'

'Buy this book and free your mind, life and career' Shaa Wasmund, bestselling author of Stop Talking, Start Doing

'Successful people love what they do. You can too. Read FREE and learn how to make work work for you' Marshall Goldsmith, bestselling author of What Got You Here Won't Get You There

About the author

Chris Baréz-Brown

Chris Baréz Brown - bestselling author, speaker and business beatnik - has a rather unusual view of the world: he knows that everybody is perfect. As we grow, develop and socialize we can lose touch with that brilliance and often become somebody we're not. Chris founded his company, Upping Your Elvis, in 2009 to help people reconnect with their inner genius and become confident in being who they truly are. Described as a 'long-haired twinkly-eyed cross between Richard Branson and a wizard' (Guardian), Chris is also the author of the bestselling book Free: Love Your Work, Love Your Life. In 2016 he became a columnist for Psychologies magazine and launched his latest mission: The Great Wake Up!
