Oliver Burkeman and I Discuss Time Management for Mortals and … His book, “Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals” How we invest more energy and focus on trying to escape certain feelings Finitude and understanding that life is finite Time and how we relate to it as something we have and use The idea that we are time rather than we have time Accepting the truth of your finitude allows you to live more in the present Confusing meaningful with extraordinary Cosmic insignificance therapy suggests that we reexamine the threshold of what makes a meaningful life Our tendency to want to define and measure what is meaningful in life How the pursuit of using time well can lead us to live in the future rather than being present Asking ourselves if something is expanding or contracting to us The modern attention economy and being aware if we are choosing where our attention goes How the things that matter most to us can provoke unpleasant emotions that lead to seeking distractions The problem isn’t how things are, but rather how we think they should be Trying too hard to be present in the moment Accepting the impossibility of complete control Oliver Burkeman Links: Oliver’s Website Twitter Oliver’s Posts Calm App: The app designed to help you ease stress and get the best sleep of your life through meditations and sleep stories.

Jake Ducey

Jake Ducey

This week we talk to Jake Ducey about our purposeWhen Jake Ducey decided to quit and leave behind a college basketball scholarship and business school at 19, he had no idea that he would slowly become a leading voice for his generation. It was only three years ago that Jake sat in Economics 101, totally discontent with the state of his life, the direction his generation was heading, and the poverty of the world. After nearly dying in a car accident while drunk, he decided to take the last of his savings, drop out of school and travel the world.It wasn’t until Jake fell off a cliff in Indonesia and his life was saved by locals, that he realized all he was looking for was within him. As a result, he came back and wrote a book about his journey—Into the Wind: My Six-Month Journey Wandering the World for Life’s Purpose—which made the Amazon best-selling list, received acclaim from Jack Canfield and is now being turned into a film script for a major motion picture. He even built an orphanage in Guatemala with part of the proceeds from his book.If you ask Jake today if he ever thought any of this was possible, he would’ve laughed—but now at 22, he has already written another book, The Purpose Principles: How to Draw More Meaning Into Your Life.  In This Interview Jake and I Discuss... See details on our website Some of our most popular interviews that you might also enjoy:Dan HarrisMaria PopovaTodd Henry- author of Die EmptyRandy Scott HydeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
