The average human lifespan is absurdly, insultingly brief. Assuming you live to be eighty, you have just over four thousand weeks. Nobody needs telling there isn't enough time. We're obsessed with our lengthening to-do lists, our overfilled inboxes, work-life balance, and the ceaseless battle against distraction; and we're deluged with advice on becoming more productive and efficient, and "life hacks" to optimize our days. But such techniques often end up making things worse. The sense of anxious hurry grows more intense, and still the most meaningful parts of life seem to lie just beyond the horizon.

Still, we rarely make the connection between our daily struggles with time and the ultimate time management problem: the challenge of how best to use our four thousand weeks. Drawing on the insights of both ancient and contemporary philosophers, psychologists, and spiritual teachers, Oliver Burkeman delivers an entertaining, humorous, practical, and ultimately profound guide to time and time management. Rejecting the futile modern fixation on "getting everything done," Four Thousand Weeks introduces readers to tools for constructing a meaningful life by embracing finitude, showing how many of the unhelpful ways we've come to think about time aren't inescapable, unchanging truths, but choices we've made as individuals and as a society--and that we could do things differently.

Joyful is a fascinating exploration of how the spaces and objects we interact with daily can significantly impact our mood and happiness. Ingrid Fetell Lee, a renowned designer and TED speaker, delves into groundbreaking research from neuroscience and psychology to explain how making small changes to our surroundings can create extraordinary happiness in our lives.

Have you ever wondered why we stop to admire the orange glow of a sunset or why cherry blossoms captivate us every spring? Is there a reason why people of all ages and cultures are charmed by baby animals and can't resist smiling at a burst of confetti or colorful balloons?

We are often told that our physical environment has little effect on our inner joy. However, what if the vibrant world around us is our most renewable and accessible source of happiness?

In this enlightening book, Lee reveals how seemingly mundane spaces and objects can have surprising and powerful effects on our emotions. She explains why certain settings make us feel anxious or competitive, while others foster acceptance and delight. Most importantly, she shows how we can harness the power of our surroundings to live fuller, healthier, and truly joyful lives.
