À propos de cette écoute

A discussion of the book Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman.

Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman challenges the conventional approach to productivity and time management, arguing that the modern obsession with "getting everything done" is an attempt to control the uncontrollable. Instead, the book encourages readers to embrace their finitude. Burkeman suggests that much of our anxiety and feeling of being overwhelmed comes from our resistance to the fact that we can't do it all - we are limited by our finitude. Drawing on philosophical insights, the book advocates for a shift in perspective, urging us to prioritize what truly matters, accept that we cannot do everything, and find meaning in the present moment and in activities themselves, rather than solely in their outcomes. It's a call to move beyond the efficiency trap and build a more meaningful life by consciously choosing how to spend our limited time.
