Tired? Trapped? Troubled?
Long working hours, travel and ever-evolving gadgets connecting us to an always-on world leave many people sapped of energy and far too tired. Families and friends often get the dregs of lives worn out by work. Financial anxiety is the padlock that keeps us trapped. Sometimes we wonder whether we are in God's will and what the long-term legacy of our life will be.
Work-life balance problems? Paul Valler has been there.
Based on firsthand experience of a pressurized life Paul digs deep to uncover the root cause of our symptoms and shows how gaining a strong identity and clear purpose enables us to make winning choices. Bite-sized chapters and thoughtful questions make it possible for even the most committed workaholic to get a life.

Commendations
"This heartfelt, wise and vigorous book has the potential to help its readers do exactly what it says on the cover. May it be so for you." Mark Greene, LICC
"Paul Valler deserves an immense 'well done' for his exposure of the flaws in many work-related ideas, the debilitating effect of peer pressure, the deceptive nature of workplace culture e.g. "having to stay late", and for nailing the artificial and often unhelpful sacred/secular divide." Tom Stevens, Transform Work UK
" ... a practical, honest, Christ-centred help in our quest to live authentic lives." Jago Wynne, All Souls, Workplace Ministry
" (This book) ... makes the connections between faith and work, between Sunday morning and Monday morning." Tim Chester, Author, 'The Busy Christian's Guide to Busyness'
