is it possible to not only survive the modern world, but thrive?

The task of navigating life's frantically paced, 24/7 digital age has never been more complex or daunting. We are all under constant pressure to perform, day in day out. Every day is a grand final with more and more people constantly wired up, but eventually melting down.

Flip the Switch offers practical advice on mastering a totally new skill-set to survive in the modern world - helping you be on when you have to and off when you can. Grounded in the sciences of peak performance, physiology and positive psychology; combined with experiences of some of the world's leading teams and performers; Flip the Switch teaches you to play hard and to recover even harder!

Performance expert Andrew May explains how to maximise your energy, why learning to go slow will boost productivity, and how to sustain performance without ever needing to crash and burn.
