Stop Drowning in Meetings, Emails, and Workplace Chaos. Take Back Control of Your Day.

In today's work culture, being busy has replaced being productive. If your calendar is packed with meetings, your inbox is overflowing, and every day ends in last-minute "fire drills," this book is your rescue plan.

"Surviving the Modern Workday" is a practical guide to mastering the three biggest productivity killers: pointless meetings, endless emails, and constant interruptions. With clear strategies and actionable systems, you'll learn how to reclaim your time and focus-without burning out or becoming the office villain.

Inside, you'll discover how to:

• Say "no" to meetings that waste your time
• Replace real-time chaos with async clarity (yes, it's possible!)
• Tame your inbox with batching, templates, and boundaries
• Handle office emergencies without losing your head-or your calendar
• Build a sustainable system to protect your time and energy

Whether you work in a corporate office, a startup, or remotely from home, this book will show you how to stop reacting and start leading your day with intention.

Perfect for anyone who works-and wants to work smarter.
