Four Thousand Weeks for Everything. Fewer Plans — More Life

Time management gurus talk about the secrets of concentration that will help establish a balance between work and personal life, accomplish the maximum number of tasks in the shortest time, stay at the peak of productivity, and work effectively non-stop. But even if we follow their advice, we risk burning out if there are too many tasks, and getting bored when there are too few. The truth is that the day you clear your work email will never come, and your to-do list is actually an endless conveyor. Oliver Burkeman suggests setting it aside and asking yourself: do you really want to spend the allotted 4000 weeks of your life on a joyless struggle for productivity? His book is a global bestseller that changes our perception of the time of our lives and how to spend it best. After reading it, you will be able to accept reality as it is, understand what you want to spend your time on, and at the same time rid yourself of the obsession with constant busyness and the fear of missing out.
