A non-fiction book by Oliver Burkeman that challenges conventional wisdom about productivity and time management. It argues that humans have a finite amount of time (roughly four thousand weeks) and encourages readers to embrace their limitations, prioritize what truly matters, and find meaning beyond endless to-do lists and the pursuit of efficiency. Burkeman, a journalist and author, offers a philosophical and practical guide to living a more fulfilling life by accepting finitude rather than trying to conquer time.
another lesson that's just great from Oliver B Workman uh question how much should you care about things answer I'm not exactly sure but I know that it's not the absolute maximum amount all the time for everything
""Oliver Burkeman is mentioned by name (as 'Oliver B Workman') and a quote attributed to him about not caring the absolute maximum amount all the time for everything. This quote perfectly aligns with the themes of his book 'Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals,' which discusses embracing the finitude of time and prioritizing what truly matters rather than trying to optimize every aspect of life. The speaker then elaborates on this idea, using examples like over-optimizing hobbies, which is a central theme of Burkeman's work."
