Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Provocative and appealing . . . well worth your extremely limited time." —Barbara Spindel, The Wall Street Journal The average human lifespan is absurdly, insultingly brief. Assuming you live to be eighty, you have just over four thousand weeks. Nobody needs telling there isn’t enough time. We’re obsessed with our lengthening to-do lists, our overfilled inboxes, work-life balance, and the ceaseless battle against distraction; and we’re deluged with advice on becoming more productive and efficient, and “life hacks” to optimize our days. But such techniques often end up making things worse. The sense of anxious hurry grows more intense, and still the most meaningful parts of life seem to lie just beyond the horizon. Still, we rarely make the connection between our daily struggles with time and the ultimate time management problem: the challenge of how best to use our four thousand weeks. Drawing on the insights of both ancient and contemporary philosophers, psychologists, and spiritual teachers, Oliver Burkeman delivers an entertaining, humorous, practical, and ultimately profound guide to time and time management. Rejecting the futile modern fixation on “getting everything done,” Four Thousand Weeks introduces readers to tools for constructing a meaningful life by embracing finitude, showing how many of the unhelpful ways we’ve come to think about time aren’t inescapable, unchanging truths, but choices we’ve made as individuals and as a society—and that we could do things differently.

Book excerpt: Do you feel like you never have enough hours to complete everything on your to-do list and still have time for the things you care about? Have you ever wondered how highly successful people get things done without losing their sanity? Then you need to keep reading... “Until we can manage time, we can manage nothing else.” This famous quote rightly points out that every aspect of your life is determined by how you use your time. That’s because your life is made up of time. Time is your most precious commodity and it’s limited. Yet you may be easily losing time due to failure to manage it or by wasting it on unnecessary activities. On the other hand, you may be working hard and yet fail to achieve the desired results. This book will help you to master your time and conquer the results. Even for the most successful people, it’s a work in progress. Don’t feel bad if your time managing skills aren’t what they should be. The greatest names probably started off as you, but through self-discipline, they were able to succeed. Time management skills are the solution. They usually involve something simple, such as making a to-do list, or calculating how much time you waste on apps that are irrelevant to your work. Although they may seem too simple to work, you’ll be surprised at how much of a dent they can make. How to Plan Your Week, Stay Productive and Motivated the Entire Time Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn In This Book... How to Properly Structure Your Time for Maximum Productivity Coming Up with Methods to Make Your Chores Easier How to Start Early in Order to Get it All Done Having Goals and Routines to Save Time Coming Up with a System to Accomplish Regular Tasks Faster Helpful Ways to Get More Done in Less Time Much more... Time is running out! It is time to discover the true value of time and not put it to waste. Benjamin Franklin reminded us that time is money. However, in reality, it is more than that. It is essentially life itself. Every minute that is gone is equivalent to wasted moment of your life, too. Download This Book Today
