HTML:<p><b>A National Bestseller<br /> A map for a liberating journey toward a</b> <b>more meaningful life—a journey that</b> <b>begins where we actually find ourselves,</b> <b>not with a fantasy of where we'd like to be</b><b>—from the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Four Thousand Weeks</i></b><br /> Addressing the fundamental questions about how to live, <i>Meditations for Mortals</i> offers a powerful new way to take action on what counts: a guiding philosophy of life Oliver Burkeman calls "imperfectionism." It helps us tackle challenges as they crop up in our daily lives: our finite time, the lure of distraction, the impossibility of doing anything perfectly.<br /> How can we embrace our nonnegotiable limitations? Or make good decisions when there's always too much to do? How do we shed the illusion that life will really begin as soon as we can "get on top of everything"? Reflecting on quotations drawn from philosophy, religion, literature, psychology, and self-help, Burkeman explores a combination of practical tools and daily shifts in perspective. The result is a life-enhancing and surprising challenge to much familiar advice—and a profound yet entertaining crash course in living more fully.<br /> To be read either as a four-week "retreat of the mind" or devoured in one or two sittings, <i>Meditations for Mortals</i> will be a source of solace and inspiration, and an aid to a saner, freer, and more enchantment-filled life. In anxiety-inducing times, it is rich in truths we have never needed more.</p>. Self-Improvement. Philosophy. Nonfiction. Media Type: eBook.
