Meditations for Mortals takes us on a liberating, invigorating journey toward a more meaningful life-a journey that begins not with fantasies of the ideal existence but with the reality in which we actually find ourselves. It brings themes at the heart of Oliver Burkeman's bestselling Four Thousand Weeks-our finite time, the lure of distraction, the productivity trap-into our daily lives. Looking beyond the challenges of time management to the most fundamental questions about how to live, he offers here a powerful new way to take action on what counts: a guiding philosophy of life that he calls "imperfectionism." --Provided by publisher.
