Stop Saying You're Fine

Stop Saying You're Fine (2011) by Mel Robbins is a self-help book about breaking out of the feeling of being stuck and taking action toward change. Robbins argues that the brain is wired to resist new and uncomfortable action, so waiting to feel ready rarely works. Drawing on research and interviews, she offers techniques to override that resistance, from not hitting the snooze button to acting on an idea within five seconds, an early version of the method behind her later book.
