Its time to give yourself a break!

Youve been bossing yourself around for too long. Where has it gotten you? Maybe its time you follow the example of the French and let it go. Allow yourself to be angry, be tired, be silly, be passionate - to give yourself a break, and just simply be.

Fabrice Midal offers us a new solution to the perennial problem of our too-much, too-fast modern life. Its OK, he urges us, to say no. Its fine to quit the things that dont fulfill you. Its necessary, in fact, to give yourself a break and say, simply, cest la vie.
