Numerous studies have shown that employees are unhappy - not only that, but even when they're happy, they can still feel isolated, undervalued, and at a loss of where to turn. As a result, many people go through their lives feeling “stuck” or unfulfilled, with all the potential for a meaningful career left untapped. In response, Bruce Daisley proposes a revolutionary approach: to promote job satisfaction by looking at the company culture, our own personal habits, and life outside work.

The biggest concept introduced in the book is the “Three Feats of Enduring Work Happiness.” These three feats are mindfulness, connection, and meaning. While these are specific to our own life situation and career choices, the book provides practical advice on how to make positive life changes in order to further personal growth and job satisfaction.

First, practitioners are encouraged to focus on the importance of mindfulness in their lives. While the concept of mindfulness is not new, Bruce Daisley offers an innovative perspective that goes beyond the traditional practice of mediation and concentration. Mindfulness helps us to better connect to our own thoughts and feelings, stay present in the moment, and cultivate emotional intelligence. This can be achieved through practices such as living in the present, being mindful of our speech and being aware of how our thoughts affect our emotions.

Secondly, Bruce Daisley promotes connection with other people and the workplace. He encourages practitioners to make a conscious effort to build relationships within the workplace and to think outside the box when it comes to networking. He also highlights the importance of understanding the impact of digital connectivity and how to use it in a positive way.

Thirdly, Bruce Daisley focuses on the importance of meaning and creating a job with purpose. He encourages practitioners to define what “meaning” is for them and then to find ways to connect their work to their passions and life goals. The book explains how to create a meaningful job that is rewarding, enjoyable and meaningful.

The final concept introduced in the book is the importance of taking time for yourself and for the things you love. By taking time for yourself, you can build yourself up, invest in yourself and better cope with stresses and frustrations. While this may be seen as common sense, it is often difficult to take such steps in the busy world of work. Bruce Daisley encourages practitioners to make “me time” a priority, and to recognize its value as part of their overall working life.

Ultimately, the book provides practical tips and advice on how to create a more meaningful and rewarding work life. By following the 30 hacks presented in the book, practitioners can be empowered to take control of their working lives, and to introduce joy and purpose into their everyday job. Eat Sleep Work Repeat: 30 Hacks for Bringing Joy to Your Job by Bruce Daisley is an important and helpful book for those looking to create a better and more fulfilling working life.
