In today’s competitive world, success is often defined as outsmarting, outpacing, and outdoing others. As victims of this be-all, do-all mentality, we become consumed with programs and projects, which leave us frazzled and frustrated.
Relentlessly vying for the ever-elusive role of superhero creates unnecessary stress and worry. Learn how to slow down, ease up, and cut back. While you may never be able to save all the starfish on the sandy beaches of your life, you can still be successful.
Debbie Bowen held this same view that she needed to do everything for everyone perfectly. That all changed when she discovered that she simply could not do it-she couldn’t save all the starfish on the beach. Changing her perspective took some time, but she gradually learned to slow down, let go, and go without and that has made all the difference.
Learn about three harmful myths that we often fall prey to, ways to simplify our lives from cleaning our houses to organizing holidays, and how to living outside the fast lane can bring greater peace to our hearts and our homes. It is a must read for anyone wanting a slower, more simple pace.
The author cuts right to the chase as she starts her book. Nothing fluffy about it – she is very honest about how in her own life, she was expecting too much of herself and trying to do too much. (Something I think we can all relate to.) The advice she gives in this small book is logical and easy, and will make all the difference in simplifying our lives.

Sometimes when my husband’s eighty-year-old grandmother was feeling pressured by the projects in her life that were going undone, she would arbitrarily dismiss them by saying, ‘In the end, it won’t matter anyway.’ And in the end, it didn’t!
Not everything worth doing is worth doing well, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth doing.
Sometimes good enough is good enough.
Sometimes good enough is good enough.
