Loved this book! It was just the right combination (for me) of things I already knew said clearly and things that I needed to hear someone say. Gonna recommend this to several chronically burned out people in my life.

dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

A social psychologist examines the “laziness lie”—the dominant and damaging belief that being virtuous means working hard and being productive—from its puritanical roots to its impact on work, activism, and our personal lives and relationships today. This relied a little more on anecdotes and interviews than on hard studies and statistics than I would like, but I still think it’s groundbreaking, radical, inclusive and definitely worth the read.

This book was easy-to-read with an accessible tone and relatable testimonials and annecdotes. It also completely changed my worldview - affirming beliefs that bring me peace and challenging ones that harm me. I recommend this book as highly as possible to everyone.
