Klappentext
How to Look Like You Have Your Shit Together is a calm, ironic, and sharply observant book about modern exhaustion, invisible social pressure, and the performance of competence.
It is written for people who appear functional, capable, and reliable - while quietly improvising everything behind the scenes.
Instead of offering motivation, routines, or self-optimization strategies, this book removes the invisible rules that drain energy: over-explaining, over-performing, constant availability, guilt-based politeness, and nightly self-surveillance.
Through short chapters, precise language, and dry humor, the book explores everyday situations such as saying no, leaving conversations, ending meetings, canceling plans, answering messages, resting without guilt, and finishing the day without mentally rewriting it.
This is not a classic self-help book. It does not promise transformation.
It offers recognition, relief, and the permission to stop trying so hard to appear normal.
How to Look Like You Have Your Shit Together is the first volume in The Quiet Competence Series.
