This book is wonderful. Instead of offering new tips on how to cram
more into your day, it questions why we feel the need to ... My
favourite kind of book is this one ... it examines the human
struggle with intelligence, wisdom, humour and humility.
*The Times*
Perfectly pitched somewhere between practical self-help book and
philosophical quest ... as with all the best quests, its many
pleasures don't require a fast-forward button, but happen along the
way
*Observer*
Life is finite. You don't have to fit everything in. Enjoy your
life. Breathe out. Read this book and wake up to a new way of
thinking and living
*Emma Gannon, author of The Multi-Hyphen Method*
A wonderfully honest book, Four Thousand Weeks is a much-needed
reality check on our culture's crazy assumptions around work,
productivity and living a meaningful life
*Mark Manson, bestselling author of Everything is F*cked and The
Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck*
His book will challenge and amuse you. And it may even spur you on
to change your life. At the very least reading it would be a good
use of one of your four thousand weeks
*Evening Standard*
