Chris Reavis' Boost Your Bullsh*t Resilience At Work offers tools for reducing work stress and dealing with difficult situations at work. With stories and common experiences, Chris shares proven strategies that are useful for various situations. In six sections, the book covers various topics that are designed to explain why you should care about work stressors, show you the factors to determine when to leave, explore side hustles, help you align with your guiding principles and what matters to you, reveal proven skills for understanding stressful patterns and overpowering stressors, and help you find ways to implement the book's lessons to achieve healthy goals. You will find a suggestion that addresses your work stressors in this comprehensive book, whether you have an annoying boss, a colleague who praises another colleague inappropriately, or long, boring meetings at work.
The author's messages are backed by research results and quotes from other sources, which engender deep engagement and confidence in the validity of his words. I enjoyed Chris Reavis' use of humor and the stories from his rich work experiences. The tales expose readers to various work conditions and the different types of characters you may meet at work. I especially loved the story that reveals the time Chris used the "shiny object syndrome" to gain a promotion and a great recommendation from a condescending leader at work. Boost Your Bullsh*t Resilience At Work is filled with profound messages, exercises, and anecdotes that will benefit everyone who works with others, from the employer to the employee and even the contract worker or freelancer. It's worth returning to it over and over again to revisit its valuable, evidence-backed insights.
