Addressing the fundamental questions about how to live, "Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts" offers a powerful new way to act on what counts: a guiding philosophy of life Oliver Burkeman calls “imperfectionism.” It helps us tackle challenges as they crop up in our daily lives: our finite time, the lure of distraction, the impossibility of doing anything perfectly.
How can we embrace our nonnegotiable limitations? Or make good decisions when there’s always too much to do? How do we shed the illusion that life will really begin as soon as we can “get on top of everything”? Reflecting on quotations drawn from philosophy, religion, literature, psychology, and self-help, Burkeman, the New York Times bestselling author of "Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals," explores a combination of practical tools and daily shifts in perspective. The result is a life-enhancing and surprising challenge to much familiar advice―and a profound yet entertaining crash course in living more fully.
To be read either as a four-week “retreat of the mind” or devoured in one or two sittings, "Meditations for Mortals" will be a source of solace and inspiration, and an aid to a saner, freer, and more enchantment-filled life. In anxiety-inducing times, it is rich in truths we have never needed more.
Burkeman will be in conversation with Daniel Pink (FAN ’18, ’22), the #1 New York Times bestselling author of several provocative, bestselling books about business, work, creativity, and behavior, including "The Power of Regret"; "When"; "To Sell Is Human"; "Drive"; and "A Whole New Mind."
