“This book is an exploration of a saner way of relating to time and a toolbox of practical ideas for doing so, drawn from the work of philosophers, psychologists, and spiritual teachers who all rejected the struggle to dominate or master it.But it is written in the belief that time management as we know it has failed miserably, and that we need to stop pretending otherwise.” “ Four Thousand Weeks is yet another book about making the best use of time.“You might have assumed there’d be a handful of productivity books that take seriously the stark facts about the shortness of life, instead of pretending that we can just ignore the subject. “Assuming you live to be eighty, you’ll have had about four thousand weeks.”.“This book is an attempt to help redress the balance-to see if we can’t discover, or recover, some ways of thinking about time that do justice to our real situation: to the outrageous brevity and shimmering possibilities of our four thousand weeks.”
