Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman

What this episode covers

Oliver Burkeman is the author of https://www.oliverburkeman.com/about (The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking) (2012) and https://www.oliverburkeman.com/about (Help! How to Become Slightly Happier and Get a Bit More Done) (2011), a collection of columns for the Guardian newspaper. Four Thousand Weeks is about making the most of our radically finite lives in a world of impossible demands, relentless distraction and political insanity (and 'productivity techniques' that mainly just make everyone feel busier). “This is the most important book ever written about time management. Oliver Burkeman offers a searing indictment of productivity hacking and profound insights on how to make the best use of our scarcest, most precious resource. His writing will challenge you to rethink many of your beliefs about getting things done—and you’ll be wiser because of it” —ADAM GRANT, author of Think Again and host of WorkLife Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55717229-four-thousand-weeks (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55717229-four-thousand-weeks) Connect with Audiobook Reviews in 5: · Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/audiobook_reviews_podcast/ (https://www.instagram.com/audiobook_reviews_podcast/) · Twitter: @janna_ca · Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AudiobookReviewsInFiveMinutes (https://www.facebook.com/AudiobookReviewsInFiveMinutes) · Anchor: https://anchor.fm/audiobookreviews (https://anchor.fm/audiobookreviews) · Audiobook Reviews in Five Minutes website: https://podcast.jannastam.com/ (https://podcast.jannastam.com/) · Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/jannastam (https://www.goodreads.com/jannastam) Audio production by Graham Stephenson Episode music: Caprese by https://www.sessions.blue/ (Blue Dot Sessions) Rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast on Apple, Anchor, Breaker, Google, Overcast, Pocket Casts, RadioPublic, and Spotify
