Summary

The B!tch is back… and she's brought The Grit Doctor along for the ride.

What’s in your handbag? To-do lists scrawled on the back of receipts? An unpaid bill? Half a chocolate bar, covered in fluff? Is your handbag a metaphor for the rest of your life? Has becoming a capable, poised grown-up turned out to be more complicated than you imagined?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, and if you're tired of the crappy stuff in life grinding you down, then it's time to stop whining and Get Your Sh!t Together.

With this funny, frank, and tough-talking guide, Ruth Field and The Grit Doctor will help you:

  • Tackle daunting problems like a fearless superwoman
  • Figure out what you want from life and find the courage to Go For It
  • Learn how to get more sh!t done in less time
  • Stop feeling bad about your less-than-perfect life (because perfection's overrated anyway)

She taught you how to run; now she’s going to teach you how to run your life!

Critic reviews

“Amusingly vicious... excellent advice all round.” (Emma Thompson on Run Fat B!tch Run)
“Refreshingly free of new-age jargon and psychoanalysis. It's about determination and the pursuit of the 'happy effect.'” ( Herald Sun)
“If you're stuck in an exercise rut, this book will give you a rather rude kick up the backside... it certainly shamed us into lacing up our Nikes!” ( Closer)
“Ruth is an inspiring running-buddy... By the time I unpack my summer wardrobe, I'm sure my inner Grit Doctor will be my best friend.” (Flic Everett Daily Express)
“A witty, no-nonsense read, it had us dusting off our trainers within seconds. Trust us when we say you'll be up and running in no time at all.” ( Grazia)

uninspired

after so many positive reviews I thought I'd give this a go. wish I hadn't bothered.
Nothing new here. If this is your first purchase it might help. If you suffer from long term disorganization it's very basic.
The only advice is get off your ass because anything is better than nothing.

How many times can she say the word shit

Contains nothing new except for constant use of the word shit and being tough with yourself.
Old time management theories are re cycled with constant use of the word shit.
Nothing to view here. Move along

Can't get through it. Half way through it.

Tried to pick it up again, 3 times... But its just not for me. It's not the humor that I can not appreciate, because I like a bit of rude and raw. But overal, its the strict and punishing voice too overruling for me, personal. And the anti therapy vibe is going down the wrong pipe, for me. All together a bit to "negatively brought" for this law of attraction lover. Sorry

Enjoyable

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I would, it is a quite enjoyable book, she says things we all know but that are nice to be remembered of.

It's a book you can read many times.

I don't agree with everything she says, but most I do.

Would you be willing to try another book from Ruth Field? Why or why not?

Yes I would, she's nice to be listened to.

What about Ruth Field’s performance did you like?

Yes, she does read the book putting all her heart into it.

If this book were a film would you go see it?

I don't think so.

Full of little gems

Although written for the woman reader (using female pronouns - I am a man) this is a great audible listen containing much useful advice. The enjoyment of listening increases as it progresses. Never mind the occasionaI swear word as the content and presentation is very good. I am certain to listen to it all again as I am sure there will be benefits in doing so.
