It's About Time
It's About Time: The Art of Choosing the Meaningful Over the Urgent | Valorie Burton
2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
Discover the eternal value of your finite time—and intentionally choose the meaningful over the urgent every single day. Our culture makes it so that even the most organized and efficient among us feels the pressure of the ticking clock and the possibility and regret of missing out. Modern life has evolved in a way that sets us up for stress, pressure, and overload. New norms and attitudes tap into deeply-wired psychological impulses that make it harder than ever to take control of your time. Many of us also have innate personality traits that make the struggle even worse. No wonder time can become a tyrant that leaves us chronically stressed and discontented. Unlock an approach to life that bestselling author Valorie Burton calls “living timelessly.” You will come to understand 1) the gradual changes that have led us to a place where having too much to do and too little time to do it is the norm, 2) the vision for what it could look like if you were free from the stress of time and how to blast through the obstacles to those possibilities, and 3) the practical steps to choosing the meaningful over the urgent so that your life is unhurried yet purposeful and reflects the values and impact that are unique to you. It’s About Time helps you reimagine a life that is meaningful, at a pace that is natural, with a load that is doable and equips you with the tools to make it happen.

I enjoyed this self-help read (audiobook). I learned I am 1. a time optimist (which is why I am always late) 2. I get too many dopamine hits from doing useless little tasks (I was initially offended 😂). I learned much more, but these two stood out for me. I plan to use a time tracker app to see how I am spending my time, and adjust it to make room for what I need to do and what makes me happy. We cant buy time, so it is truly priceless. Pick!
