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.
