Nobody Is Coming to Save You : Stop Waiting for Permission. Start Changing What You Can.
Overview
What if the help you are waiting for needs somewhere to land?
Sarah has ironed a blouse for an interview that may never come. Daniel has turned down every small opportunity because his cousin abroad promised something bigger. Amara has revised her novel eleven times without showing it to a single reader.
None of them is lazy or foolish. They are waiting for the call, the money, the permission, the right moment, or the right person to notice them.
Nobody Is Coming to Save You is a warm, honest and practical book about the moment we realise that the rescue we have counted on may never arrive, and about everything that is still possible when it does not.
This is not a book about doing everything alone. It doesn't pretend that hard work guarantees success, or that poverty, illness, discrimination and grief can be wished away. It asks you to stop surrendering the parts of your future you can influence while you wait for someone to rescue you from the parts you cannot.
Through stories set from London to Manila and from Lisbon to Lagos, you will learn to:
- Tell waiting that serves you from waiting that has quietly taken over your life
- Separate the facts of your past from the verdicts you drew from them
- Stop waiting to be chosen, and start making your intentions known
- Act before you feel ready, in steps sized to the life you actually live
- Ask for help, and for what your work is worth, in a way that makes it easy for people to say yes
- Recover from setbacks without losing your sense of who you are
- Help the people you love stop waiting, without taking over their lives
The book ends with a complete toolkit of every exercise in one place, including the Waiting Audit and the Next Reasonable Step. There are also 51 questions for personal reflection or reading groups.
People may help you change your life. Do not let waiting for them stop you from beginning it.
