The first book on the Shelf is *Replacing Guilt* by Nate Soares.

## What it’s about

*Replacing Guilt* collects a series of essays Soares first published on his blog, *Minding Our Way*. Its subject is motivation, and what happens when guilt and a constant sense of “I should be doing more” are the main things pushing you forward.

Soares argues that guilt makes for poor long-term fuel. Across a run of short, practical essays, he walks through how to let go of the “shoulds” and work from what you actually care about instead.
