You don't have to choose between your career and your personal life.

Many people feel fulfilled by their professional accomplishments, and they should. Yet, career wins can come at great cost to your health, relationships, and personal well-being. Failure in those areas can boomerang on your career's success. Why does it seem impossible to both win at work and succeed at life?

Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller know we can do better because the five principles in this book have revolutionized their professional achievements while supporting personal lives rich in meaning, relationships, and vitality. Today, Michael and Megan coach their clients to live the Double Win.

The Double Win sees work and life in partnership, not opposition. Succeeding at life, in turn, fosters a clear mind, creativity, and a rested body so we can focus on the work that matters most.

This is not an abstract hope. It's a concrete, daily reality. Michael, Megan, their employees, and their clients live it. And it's a real possibility for you as well.

Backed by insights from psychology and organizational science and illustrated with eye-opening case studies from across the business spectrum and their own coaching clients, Win at Work and Succeed at Life is their manifesto on how you can achieve work-life balance and success.

"Filled with practical and thought-provoking ideas and tools, this book will help even the busiest professional transform the tension between work and life into a true Double Win."—John C. Maxwell, founder of The Maxwell Leadership Enterprise
