You Can Just Do Things
'A guide to building life on your own terms.' Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit
It's refreshing to read a book so ambitious and humane at the same time.' Ali Abdaal, author of Feel-Good Positivity
__________
Extraordinary results don't require genius or grit – they require agency, and anyone can build it
You've been taught success comes from careful planning, learning the ropes, and earning one promotion at a time. But what about the people who seem to skip all that?
We all know a few rare individuals who never stop moving, taking wild risks, and collecting public failures, yet somehow always seem to land on top. They act with confidence while you second-guess. They jump while you're still researching. They ask forgiveness instead of permission, and the world rewards them for it.
Why don't the rules apply to them?
Because they're not rules. They're productivity guidelines for people who've been trained to wait for permission.
High-agency people act on the world rather than letting the world act on them. They don't wait to feel ready. They don't ask if they're qualified. They simply do things, and the results follow.
You Can Just Do Things reveals the specific strategies that separate those who achieve from those who wait:Increase your surface area for luck – put yourself where opportunities can find you
Take every shortcut available – the "proper path" is often just slower, not better
Build forcing functions – design systems that make backing out harder than following through
Use your deepest insecurities as fuel – your shame contains your most powerful motivation
The gap between where you are and where you want to be isn't about talent, discipline or working harder. It's about whether you're willing to claim ownership over your own life. It's to stop asking if you're allowed and start simply doing.
This book won't teach you time management or goal-setting. It's a journey and a toolkit for bold living. It will show you how to recognize when you're defaulting to helplessness, how to build the muscle of decisive action, and how to navigate toward a life that's actually yours.
Stop asking permission. Start doing things.

'Through small, decisive actions, you can take control of your life and live the way you want.’ Arthur C. Brooks, Harvard professor and #1 New York Times bestselling author
'The biggest obstacle to change is in the mind: the mistaken belief that trying is pointless or too hard. Cate Hall elegantly demolishes this barrier… You Can Just Do Things is essential reading.' Eric Ries, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lean Startup

As the king’s illegitimate daughter, Princess Mireille has spent her whole life scorned by the court, her fate never her own, even now as she’s forced into marriage with the infamous conqueror threatening her kingdom’s borders. She expects distance, perhaps even cold civility from the Blood King – not the unsettling pull of his attention.
Yet when their wedding descends into bloodshed, the man meant to be her escape becomes her captor, imprisoning her in her own dungeons. There, Mireille uncovers the truth of her father’s sins, discovering she's not alone beneath the castle.

Dragged into a brutal struggle for survival, Mireille is caught between two powerful beings that threaten to consume her entirely: one demanding obedience, and the other craving what little soul she has left.
But Mireille was not born to kneel.*This is a dark fantasy romance for a mature, 18+ audience and contains themes and content that aren’t to everyone’s liking. Please check the author’s note at the beginning of the book for content warnings before reading.*

The City Without Jews : Life and Death in Nazi Vienna
‘A truly major work, both deeply moving and incredibly powerful. A masterpiece of research, structure and writing . . . unforgettable’ - Sir Antony Beevor, bestselling author of Stalingrad'Painful, profound, prescient . . . a magisterial work' - Sonia Purnell, internationally bestselling author of Kingmaker and A Woman of No ImportanceIn 1938, Vienna was the second largest Jewish city in Europe, home to nearly 200,000 Jewish people.By 1946, only a few thousand had survived.In this heart-wrenching story of loss, fear, courage and hope, acclaimed historian Douglas Smith chronicles the Nazi destruction of Jewish Vienna. Drawing on hundreds of long-forgotten voices, from Jews to Nazis to Gentile collaborators and bystanders, The City Without Jews centres on one remarkable person: Mignon Langnas.Watching as nearly every Jew she knew was expropriated, forced to migrate, or deported to the killing fields and death camps in the East, Mignon vividly recorded her world in diaries and letters, creating an indispensably detailed and poignant account of life under Nazi rule. What emerges from the wreckage of a city bent on Jewish eradication is a story like no other – one of betrayal, sacrifice, impossible choices and survivor guilt.

Csendes vezetés
,,A nyugalom erő. Hatalom és tekintély van a nyugalomban és a kimértségben."
Carlo Ancelotti minden idők egyik legnagyszerűbb edzője, öt Bajnokok Ligája-győzelemmel büszkélkedhet. De személyisége nem is állhatna messzebb a sok riválisa által előszeretettel alkalmazott agresszív, színészkedős magatartástól. Nyugalmával és letisztult stílusával olyan játékosok feltétlen hűségét vívta ki, mint David Beckham, Zlatan Ibrahimovic és Cristiano Ronaldo.
A Csendes vezetés című könyvben Ancelotti maga mesél teljes edzői pályafutásáról - módszereiről, mentorairól, hibáiról és diadalairól - és bevezet minket az öltözők különleges világába, ahol megismerhetjük azokat a karaktereket, kihívásokat és döntéseket, amelyek formálták őt.
Számos történetet most mesél el először, szót ejt mindenről, a tehetségek kezelésétől a kudarcok feldolgozásáig, a taktikától a lélektani hadviselésig. Minden fejezet végén megtalálható ,,A csendes út" című rész, mely összegzi az olvasottakat.
Ancelotti könyve így egyszerre lett sziporkázó életrajz és egy ritka bepillantás a vezetés világába.

The World Beneath Our Feet
'Thrilling and delightful' - George Monbiot'Vital, brilliant, wholly absorbing... A masterpiece of science writing' - Isabella treeTo appreciate the wonders of the world around us, we're often told to look up. But what if we need to look down instead?Everything that happens below ground sustains all life above it - yet we rarely think about this mysterious, dark underland. In The World Beneath Our Feet soil ecologist Frank Ashwood scratches the surface and takes us on an eye-opening safari through this precious ecosystem, from the ancient forests of New Zealand to the vast black soil deposits of the US and China. Every layer of the pedosphere is a world of its own, each more alien than the last as we travel deeper into the Earth.The ground beneath our feet hums with a staggering abundance of winding roots, interconnecting fungal networks, wriggling creatures and mind-blowing microbial life. This hidden ecosystem is the single most biodiverse habitat on the planet. Half of all our species exist underfoot, and just a handful of soil can contain an entire world. Without soil, there would be no life as we know it.In a story of connection and communication, we meet pioneering plants and minute animals that are essential to the health and wellbeing of our planet. We learn how soil makes our very existence possible, allowing us to cultivate crops as well as storing precious carbon and the water we need to survive. We marvel at soil as the Earth's fertiliser and one the building blocks of evolution, transforming decaying matter into the birthplace of new life.The World Beneath Our Feet opens our eyes to the hidden, wondrous world of soil and invites us all to play a part in protecting it for future generations.
