Ikigai
Embrace the Japanese concept of ikigai and discover a renewed sense of purpose. Be mindful of small pleasures each day to build a more enjoyable and fulfilling life. Keep mentally and physically active to ease the ageing process. The Japanese term ikigai has no direct English translation but essentially means 'reason for living' or 'value in life'. The concept posits that a person's ikigai lies at the intersection of four interconnected aspects of life: what we love, what we're good at, what the world needs and what we can be paid for. Ikigai, therefore, is the ideal balance between our passion, mission, vocation and profession. Ikigai is about making the most of every day, rooted in the bel...
The Nordic Art of Sisu
Often translated as resilience or perseverance, the Finnish concept of sisu is about never giving up, even when a task is seemingly impossible. Considered a hot topic of popular psychology, sisu is regarded as having a positive impact on mental health. At the heart of sisu is the idea of getting back up from failures, whether that be losing a job or the end of a relationship, and having the courage to use that experience to further oneself. Running a marathon and feel like you've hit a wall? Got a business idea but too scared to try it? Channelling sisu can be the key to overcoming both mental and physical blocks. Although a Finnish concept, this book explains how anyone can embrace sisu and channel their inner courage to make the most of any situation.

The Little Book of Man Utd
"The team never loses. They just run out of time." —Steve McClaren From Alan Hansen's falsely prophetic "You'll never win anything with kids," to Eric Cantona's existentialist aphorism on the theme of seagulls, sardines, and trawlers, this fun reference is a neat collection of words of wit and wisdom by and about Manchester United's players, managers, and officials past and present. Appearing in no particular order, each quotation is dated and attributed to its source and—where appropriate—accompanied by explanatory asides and supporting statistics, making it the perfect companion guide for any fan of Man U.
