The average human lifespan is brief: Assuming you live to be eighty, you have just over four thousand weeks. 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 truths, but choices we've madeâand that we could do things differently.
What The Reviewers Say
This book is wonderful. Instead of offering new tips on how to cram more into your day, it questions why we feel the need to.
[A] new work of almost meta self-help.
[A] provocative and appealing book.
[An] insightful work.
