How to Have a Nice Day

How to Have a Good Day, by Caroline Webb, will give you the tools you need to have a lifetime of good days.

How to Have a Nice Day

Everyone is familiar with the concept of having a “good day” or a “bad day.”  When it comes to a day in the life of a sales professional, making the most of your time is essential.  What’s more, when it comes to sales, it’s important to keep an open mind and a positive outlook.  How can you maintain that through countless projects and a heavy workload (or while struggling with the opposite)?

How to Have a Nice Day

Caroline Webb details how in her acclaimed debut, How to Have a Good Day.  With a multi-faceted background as an executive coach, economist and management consultant, Webb delves into the science and skill sets needed to sustain positivity in your day-to-day life.  The book boasts a seven-point guide structured by neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral science while retaining a sense of wisdom and humor.  You’ll most certainly need those last two things!  

I’d recommend reading this book today because the sooner you do, you’ll start enjoying better tomorrows. 

Here is the summary from Amazon

“In How to Have a Good Day, economist and former McKinsey partner Caroline Webb shows readers how to use recent findings from behavioral economics, psychology, and neuroscience to transform our approach to everyday working life.  

“Advances in behavioral sciences are giving us an ever better understanding of how our brains work, why we make the choices we do, and what it takes for us to be at our best. But it has not always been easy to see how to apply these insights in the real world – until now.   

“In How to Have a Good Day, Webb explains exactly how to apply this science to our daily tasks and routines. She translates three big scientific ideas into step-by-step guidance that shows us how to set better priorities, make our time go further, ace every interaction, be our smartest selves, strengthen our personal impact, be resilient to setbacks, and boost our energy and enjoyment. Through it all, Webb teaches us how to navigate the typical challenges of modern workplaces – from conflict with colleagues to dull meetings and overflowing inboxes – with skill and ease.  

“Filled with stories of people who have used Webb’s insights to boost their job satisfaction and performance at work, How to Have a Good Day is the book so many people wanted when they finished Nudge, Blink and Thinking Fast and Slow and were looking for practical ways to apply this fascinating science to their own lives and careers.   

“A remarkable and much-needed book, How to Have a Good Day gives us the tools we need to have a lifetime of good days.”
