The Three Piece LIfe Plan: How to balance work, contribution, and joy

THE THREE PIECE LIFE >Are you successful on paper but quietly running on empty? Perhaps your career is going well. Perhaps you're busy, productive, and constantly in demand. Yet somewhere along the way, life has become dominated by work. The books you meant to read, the hobbies you once loved, the friends you promised to see, the things that made you feel most like yourself have gradually been pushed aside. You keep telling yourself things will settle down soon. But they never do. In The Three Piece Life, leadership coach, advisor, and former corporate executive Tim Johns offers a practical and refreshing alternative to the modern culture of overwork. Drawing on his own experience of burnout, years of coaching senior leaders, and insights from psychology, business, and everyday life, Tim introduces a simple but powerful framework built around three essential pillars: - Paid Work - the work that provides income, challenge, and purpose - Unpaid Work - the contribution, service, mentoring, and giving back that enriches both ourselves and others - Simple Pleasures - the hobbies, relationships, interests, health, and moments of joy that make life worth living This is not a book about escaping work. It is a book about preventing work from becoming your entire life. Inside, you'll discover how to: - Recognise the warning signs of burnout before it is too late - Understand why so many successful people feel trapped by work - Make better decisions about your time, energy, and priorities - Reconnect with the activities and people that matter most - Build greater balance, resilience, and fulfilment without sacrificing ambition - Create your own personalised Three Piece Life plan Warm, practical, and thought-provoking, The Three Piece Life offers a different definition of success: one that includes achievement, contribution, and enjoyment in equal measure. Because you only get one go at this. Make it count.
