Hello there
Thanks for checking out this course.
This online course grew out of a series of blogs that I wrote recently about dealing with work frustration and feeling overwhelmed at work. From the comments people made and the conversations that followed, I could see that this was an important topic for many people.
Because the people who this course is designed for people who are very busy already, the material is presented in a short, accessible form. The course is meant to fit around your working life.
For people who want to go a little deeper, there are some extra resources.
Hope to see you inside the course.

What people have said about the course
This online course helps keep a sustained focus on really trying to make changes in my work. I like being able to dip into the lessons and then reading more in depth scientific studies about the different aspects of frustration, when I have more time available. The course layout is accessible even to me – I’ve never done an on-line course before, but it is easy to navigate the programme. Maureen sends timely responses too!
The other day I found myself in a tight spot with a child (I’m an early years teacher) and I remembered Gratitude – I had read the importance of it that morning. I was able to take a step back and breathe, rather than getting more stressed, and mentally gave thanks to the child for enabling me to do that.

This is a wonderful concise course that gives practical, insightful help on how to deal with frustration at work.
It is a very well-structured course with great video’s and quotes, that leads you through what’s behind getting frustrated, and ways to deal with it. Each day is very do-able even in a hectic, busy life.
This course makes me feel very positive about my work- that I can be more creative and energetic at work with much less frustration.
Als,o I feel this course will lead to a more harmonious and peaceful atmosphere with my work colleagues’
