How to get out of the passenger seat of your own life

PUSH,โ€ฏa leading wellbeing andย performanceย company,ย has launched the must-have e-book for 2021, offering the โ€œbloody simpleโ€ tools and knowledge to take back control of our behaviours, feelings and wellbeingย โ€“ in and out of the workplace.

After a year of unknowns and a general fear of the phrase โ€˜the new normalโ€™,ย 2021 High Potential Hacksย sets out to show students, employees and retirees alike, that actually, the only person in control of your life, is you.ย ย 

In celebration of World Mental Health Day in 2020, PUSH founder, Cateย Murden, interviewed 16ย esteemedย people who had all battled with their own mental health journeys:ย from alcoholism to burnout.ย Each of these brilliantย individualsย employed daily behaviours and hacks to not only manage their mental health but consistently perform at their best and reach their potential.

With essential insight from Cate, these hacks have beenย translated into a toolkit thatย promises to help youย make the best of a year you have been ledย (by your own thoughts, or others)ย to believe has no promise.

Founder and author, Cateย Murdenย explainsย what 2020 has done to shape thisย view and how it might actually be the saviour of our wellbeing:ย โ€œCovidย democratised mental health โ€“ helping us allย toย realise (or admit) the impact that external events have on how weโ€™re thinking and feeling. In times past, it was easy to ignore such concerns, simply continuing to plough our own furrow without recognising the price of our labours. But as various wise people have said for millennia, โ€˜Itโ€™s not what happens to you in life which counts, but how you interpret and deal with it.โ€™

Now weโ€™re seeing what impact this merry-go-round of strive and strife is having upon us all. So, perhaps itโ€™s the case that the โ€˜new normalโ€™ has a place for better recognition of mental health and well-being and to want far better for both of these than we ever have done previously.โ€

With an understanding that 2021 is going to look a lot different toย anythingย previously planned, the wise will realise that different tools and frameworks are needed to not only get through the year butย toย manage and excel at it.ย 

Cate, said: โ€œThis is why weโ€™re launching our 2021 High-Potential Hack Toolkit. Now is the time to take back your power, prioritise yourself and see this year for its possibilities, not its prospective setbacks.ย This e-bookย containsย everything that you or your teams might need to help you keep going, reach your potential and thriveย whatever the circumstances.โ€

Featuring sections, including โ€˜fight fear and flee your comfort zoneโ€™ and โ€˜developing self-belief to manage unwanted noiseโ€™, readers will learn everything from how to set boundariesย andย self-audit,ย throughย toย the unassailable knowledge ofย when to give โ€˜less of a f*ckโ€™. Each bite-sized life lessonย alsoย ends with five easy-to-follow steps, tips or challenges, to further affirm that you areย the master of your own destiny.ย ย 

High Potential Hacksย is more than just a guide to get you through 2021, itโ€™s a plan for how to live a mindful future, one where you are in control. โ€œBecause at the end of the dayโ€, adds, Cate,ย โ€œeverything startsย withย usย and NOW is the time to createย theย future each of us truly deserveโ€.ย
