Self-help books can be a bit trying an pedantic. They tend towards the patronizing, and it can be a bit maddening reading something like that when you're stressed and low. This book by [a: Richard Carlson|2693|Richard Carlson|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1224778602p2/2693.jpg] is the antithesis of that in many ways. The book is divided into short sections (only a few pages each) detailing the various ways you can improve your life. Each tiny tidbit is remarkably helpful, reminding the reader to stay in the moment and not to stress too much about anything. The best part is that the advice is actually helpful. Tackling problems bit by bit is far more effective than taking on any singular massive task.

A very helpful book, overall. It show more all is small stuff. show less
While some points can seem repetitive, Richard does a great job of bringing to the top of mind what we often forget. Make plans, but don't dwell on them. Appreciate what you have but always strive for better. Most importantly be a kind, and good person to make the world a better place.
Common sense tips. I am sharing what I read in the book with my team at work in the hopes they get some value.
Millions of people have enjoyed Richard Carlson's national bestsellers that show how not to let the small things in life get the best of them. Now, in Don't Sweat the Small Stuff at Work, he shows readers how to interact more peaceably and joyfully with colleagues, clients and bosses.
Spending forty hours or more a week in an office, along with rush deadlines, heavy workloads, and daily dilemmas, can make working a very stressful experience. Richard Carlson reveals tips that will transform your outlook at the office, easing stress there and also leading to a happier life at home.
Don’t sweat series changed my life to a quality time life even when having difficult times..
After the first 2 these got boring. Same stuff different day. Like Men are from Mars Author I think was more concerned with getting published than taking time to write well.
