The Personal Equation: How to Stop Living Against Yourself

Image
  The Personal Equation: How to Stop Living Against Yourself You're not broken. You don't need fixing. And yet something feels off. Not dramatically. Not enough to call it a crisis. More like a piece of furniture in the middle of the hallway — you keep bumping into it, but you've long since stopped moving it because you've come to believe it belongs there. This book is not a sunrise on a cover. It won't tell you to get up at five, journal your gratitude, or manifest your best self while simultaneously letting go of something that sounds like a laundry detergent commercial. It will do something simpler — and harder. It will ask:  What is actually going on inside you right now? The Personal Equation  proposes a formula that fits on a napkin: Look. Accept. Take one small true step. Three words. One multiplication. Because if any one of them is zero, the result is zero — no matter how hard you try at the others. Across twenty-two chapters, this book walks with you throu...

Get Sh*t Done: Why Your Brain Isn't Built for 2026 (And What to Do About It)

  Get Sh*t Done: Why Your Brain Isn't Built for 2026 (And What to Do About It) Get Sh*t Done is kind of a productivity book—but it’s really a book about dealing with all the crap life throws at you while you’re trying to be productive. Guiding you through the chaos are Hank, a tired and overwhelmed raccoon desperately trying to clear his to-do list, and the squirrel, the living embodiment of every distraction, impulse, unnecessary side quest, and fascinating idea preventing him from getting there. The book explores why knowing what you need to do and actually getting yourself to do it are two very different things. Instead of pretending life can be conquered with the perfect planner, morning routine, or color-coded calendar, it offers practical ways to make progress when your attention, motivation, responsibilities, and emotions are all pulling you in diffe...

Every Author Needs the Author Octopus Shirt (And Here's Why)

  Every Author Needs the Author Octopus Shirt (And Here's Why) Let's be honest... Writing a book is one of the few jobs where you're expected to be an author, editor, proofreader, marketer, social media manager, graphic designer, accountant, customer service representative, website developer, public speaker, podcaster, email marketer, and somehow still find time to actually write. If you've ever thought,  "I wish I had eight arms,"  congratulations... You're officially an author. That's exactly why the  Author Octopus Shirt  exists. Because Writing the Book Is Only the Beginning Many people think an author's job ends when they type "The End." Experienced authors know that's actually when the real work begins. Now you need to: Edit your manuscript. Format it. Design a cover. Upload it to retailers. Build a website. Run social media. Schedule promotions. Answer emails. Record podcasts. Create videos. Attend book signings. And somehow st...

I Did Not Survive. I Just Refused To Stop

I Did Not Survive. I Just Refused To Stop I Did Not Survive. I Just Refused To Stop: The Extraordinarily Abnormal Life of an Average Desi Muslim Girl by MissFit is a hybrid work — part satirical essay, part poetry, part visual art — built on twenty years of observing Desi Muslim women navigate the gap between what their faith actually permits and what their culture demands of them. It is not a personal memoir. It is a collective truth told through one unflinching, often very funny voice. The book moves through five parts — The Cage, The Crack, The Grey, The Fire, The Flight — and is interwoven with original bilingual Urdu/English poster art that is integral to the work, not decorative. The voice is sharp, culturally specific, and deeply researched. It separates Islam from culture deliberately — and repeatedly — with footnotes that are part context, part comedy, entirely necessary. 10% of every sale goes to education and skill development for underserved communities in Pakistan.
