Every day we’re bombarded with methods, mantras and life hacks that promise us wellness and prosperity – while time and talent remain some of our most squandered resources. The average full-time worker will spend 80,000 hours at their job: are you making the most of them? Do you truly believe in what you do, day in, day out? Internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman shows us that with moral ambition – the will to make the world a wildly better place – we can be both idealistic and successful, and change the world along the way.

In a powerful call to action, historian and journalist Rutger Bregman posits that we should all be “morally ambitious,” revoking the pursuit of success without the essential ingredient of doing good for the world. Audible Editor Emily discusses his new book on the topic, and how we can all get there with the help of The School for Moral Ambition.
