Description: New Book, Polish edition What if you stopped trying to do everything?We are short of time. We are surrounded by constantly growing to-do lists and overflowing inboxes. We have problems concentrating. We feel a nervous rush and a sense of mounting arrears. We try new methods to increase productivity and use various life hacks thanks to which we can supposedly optimize our day. Many of them only make the situation worse.Let's try to regain inner peace by answering the question: how to make the most of this absurdly short time that has been given to us - the time of our lives, which lasts on average four thousand weeks.We live in a time of unmet demands, infinite choices, constant distractions and spiraling global crises. And as if that wasn't enough, most of the advice on productivity and time efficiency only makes our situation worse. It encourages us to dream that one day we will finally "do everything" and become fully optimized and invincible masters of our time. Pursuing this illusory goal makes us even more busy, distracted and alienated. We put off what is most important in life for some unspecified future that never wants to come.Four Thousand Weeks is a light, philosophical, and at the same time extremely practical book about an alternative path of life, which is coming to terms with our limitations. It is an attempt to return to reality and oppose the cultural pressure that forces us to do what is impossible, instead of what can be achieved. This is a book about how to give meaning to our actions, here and now, in our work and in our personal lives - fully aware that we will not have enough time for everything and that we will never eliminate uncertainty from our lives.In it, I explain why the main challenge in managing your time is not increasing your productivity, but deciding what to give up; why in a fast-paced world, patience - which allows our affairs to run at their natural pace - is a superpower; and why, where we are faced with unlimited choices, burning bridges is more important than keeping options open. I write about how to try to resist the debilitating temptation of too much comfort and how to rediscover the benefits of shared rituals.I started writing this book before the pandemic, but honestly, it couldn't be more timely. The past year has left many of us feeling completely detached from our daily routine. As we return to normality, we have a unique opportunity to reconsider what we do with our time and rearrange our lives to make the most of these outrageously short but brimming with incredible possibilities four thousand weeks.Oliver Burkeman"This book is wonderful.""The Times""Every sentence is worth its weight in gold."Chris Evans"Comforting, fascinating, intriguing, inspiring and truly useful."Marian Keyes"A celebration of everything that is most human."Derren Brown"This is the most important book on time management ever written."Adam Grant"A perfect combination of a practical guide and philosophical reflection.""The Observer"The above description comes from the publisher.
