Oliver Burkeman.
Four Thousand Weeks: time managemant for mortals.
Vintage. 2021
What if you stopped trying to do everything?
We’re obsessed with our lengthening to-do lists, our overfilled inboxes and the sense that our attention spans are shrivelling. But to find peace of mind, we must confront the ultimate time management problem: the question of how best to use our ridiculously brief time on the planet, which amounts on average to about four thousand weeks.
Oliver Burkeman’s book is an uplifting, engrossing and deeply realistic exploration of how to face our finitude by embracing rather than denying our limitations – and in doing so unlock a more meaningful life.
