  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In "Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals" by Oliver Burkeman, the author explores our complicated relationship with time and the pervasive sense of "never having enough." Burkeman rejects the typical productivity-obsessed time management advice, instead arguing that we should embrace our limitations and become comfortable with neglecting certain things. He encourages us to consciously choose what to procrastinate on, resist the allure of "middling priorities," and learn to rest and enjoy leisure for its own sake. Ultimately, "Four Thousand Weeks" guides readers toward accepting the reality of our finite time and finding meaning in the present moment, rather than constantly striving for future fulfillment.
