Bodley Head Four Thousand Weeks: Time-Management for Mortals

Es un excelente libro que te hace repensar en las cosas a las que les estás invirtiendo tiempo

An awesome book. It puts things in perspective, a great confidence booster!

If you live by your to-do lists and are in a constant anxious state to get more of it done, you need to read this book. It's not preachy or "self-helpy" at all, it just tells you how it is: you have about 4000 weeks on this planet. Are you going to spend it as a slave to a perfect future that will never exist, or are you going to start living right now?

Worth reading

It took me many months to read this book. I found it after listening to a podcast interview of the author. The message can be boiled down to, you'll more or less live 80 years, and most likely 50% of that is already gone, you'll inevitably find yourself wondering where did the time go, and how little is left, you over plan, and you under execute, you are in a constant state of non-presence due to worry about the future and regret about the past. Well... that's just life. Embrace it, and be glad you have health now and be present in the moment you are experiencing right now. The book never struck me as pop-psi nor too self-help, it seemed like an honest conversation to be had, and to question our existence, forgive ourselves and move on.
