Description
Now, in Meditations for Mortals, Burkeman brings the themes and questions—time, mortality, imperfection, productivity, and how to live fully and deeply even when things are most challenging—into the heart of our daily lives.
How do we embrace the reality of our finiteness? How do we make decisions and act with conviction when there is always too much to do and failure is inevitable? How do we find a deeper sense of purpose when we realize that life is not a problem to be solved? How does care for others make us more free?
Comprised of four weeks of extended reflections on inspiring quotations—drawn from philosophy, religion, literature, psychology, and self-help—Meditations for Mortals is a companion for turbulent times, offering solace and enlightenment, inspiration and insight, and moments of humor and provocation.
A four-week journey to embracing your limitations, thriving in an age of bewilderment, and finally making time for what counts. The result is a winking challenge to the usual self-help platitudes—a surprising and entertaining crash course in living meaningfully.
