The Daily Reset: 366 Nudges to Move Your Life Forward

by Steven P. MacGregor

A Book. A Journal. A Daily Coach. For Every Day of the Year.

Change is hard. It takes patience and consistent effort, yet the rewards are great. Let The Daily Reset be your guide. A fantastic and timely book.Marshall Goldsmith, New York Times bestselling author and world leading leadership thinker and executive coach. We get to write a new page of our lives each and every day. No matter what the day holds, we go to sleep and reset for the new one ahead. Each daily reset gives us an opportunity to improve, by small yet valuable margins. This book provides guidance, inspiration and knowledge to move your life forward. You will find 366 nudges—reflections, questions, hacks, facts, stories, studies and methods—divided into 12 key themes for your wellbeing.Wellbeing is a journey. We might not find the right path the first time. In fact, it’s something that is always changing, evolving as we adapt to the way our life journey throws us surprises, setbacks and fortune, pleasure and pain. Such is the richness of life. Both journey and journal come from the same root, the Old French jour, or day. Every journey starts with a step, a day. If you don’t get it right today, simply reset. And go again tomorrow.Let’s begin.The first step is the hardest. Yet with each passing step it gets easier – we understand the journey is for ourselves, our body, mind, our overall wellbeing. Steven’s book is a critical tool for that first step, and to remind us everyday, that today is not the day to stop.Roberto Di Bernardini, Chief Human Resources Officer, DanoneWhat I love about The Daily Reset is that it goes beyond the standard pushes to do better or more productive things in your life and into the science behind why those things matter. What a great way to reset your thinking!Jeff Gothelf, bestselling author of Lean UX, Sense & Respond and Forever Employable Every day I look forward to my dose of The Daily Reset. I prepare a coffee and as I read the day’s nudge I know I will be inspired to reflect on what the day will bring. It’s now a habit and I’m proud of it.Rory Simpson, Chief Executive Learning Officer, TelefónicaI’m a huge fan of Steven's approach to improvement and new ways of working through small, sustainable steps! The Daily Reset is wonderfully written and a powerful inspiration for personal change.Tobias Haug, Head of Humanizing Business, SAP

I really love this book. I wasn't sure If I'd stick with the one page a day method (some days I have been enjoying it so much I've continued reading) I do however remind myself to stop, as I don't want to ruin the daily ritual element that makes this book so unique, I struggle in the mornings to get going and feel productive, as I'm a night owl. This book has really helped start my day with focus, and mindfulness. Dr MacGregor talks about the power of positive daily habits, and I'm making The Daily Reset mine.

What a brilliant way to start the day! The Daily Reset has indeed become an important part of my morning ritual. The thought-provoking daily nudges have already inspired me to make small changes which I'm sure will bring about big changes... and this is only the beginning! I give thanks for this wee gem... every day!

The brevity and stylisation of the chapters make the content so easy to read. A fantastic mix of studies and amusing anecdotes, providing insight and options for change/personal development in areas of life that we often simply accept as they are.

I'm really enjoying reading the short nudge each day. Simple, accessible, thought provoking and practical.
I’m lucky enough to have seen Stephen speak several times and have always thoroughly enjoyed the excellently researched wisdom presented in a practical and easy to apply way - not to mention the good humour.
A short daily dip in to The Daily Reset is highly recommended to get your day off to a good start

Highly Recomended! A must have book for your nightstand

This is a very interesting proposal for a daily 5-minute read (which is my case) or for a long read.

Dr. Steven Macgregor gives daily short but provocative nudges that help you reconnect with yourself and improve your wellbeing...

To read and perform!

Every day I look forward to a new nudge of The Daily Reset. Dr. Steve P. MacGregor gives me this new approach of 12 concepts to rethink, get and use in my personal and professional journey. The Daily Reset is excellently written and a practical, helpful and powerful inspiration for a personal change.

Interesting but less inspiring daily reading book than the other 11 I read this year. I highlighted only 10 items (<3% of days). Months are organized by topic. Some months the author seemed to run out of things to say about the given topic. I though the first three months were more practical than the remainder. Nonetheless an interesting daily read.
