Four Thousand Weeks
Oliver Burkeman’s 2021 book on time management, subtitled Time Management for Mortals. Central thesis: the average human life spans roughly 4,000 weeks — a finite number that demands deliberate choice about what NOT to do, rather than optimization for doing more. Reframes time management away from productivity hacks and toward acceptance of finitude and meaningful prioritization. Inspired Kyle’s thinking on focus and opportunity cost.
