What if you didn't have to quit your work to be happy? Every week, another influencer tells you to quit your job, start a business, and build a life of freedom. Every Monday morning, you scroll through someone's highlight reel from a laptop on a beach and wonder if you're doing your life wrong. You're not. The truth is that most people work conventional jobs - and most advice completely ignores them. The conversation about work happiness has been hijacked by hustle culture, startup mythology, and the idea that a 9-to-5 is something to escape from, not something to actually enjoy. This book pushes back on all of that. 101 Ways to Live a Happy 9-to-5 Job is a counter-cultural guide for the millions of people who want - or need - to stay in their regular jobs and are done waiting for permission to be happy while they're there.

You need a new approach. This book gives you 101 of them. Perfect for: Anyone in a conventional job who wants more joy, meaning, and sanity in their workday.
