Summary:
"There's an 80% chance you're poor.
Time
poor, that is. Four out of five adults report feeling they are time-poor: They have too much to do and not enough
time
to do it. And the consequences are severe. The time-poor experience less joy each day. They laugh less. They are less healthy, less productive, and more likely to divorce. In one study of 2.5 million Americans,
time
stress produced a stronger negative effect on happiness than unemployment.
How
can we escape the
time
traps that make us feel this way and keep us from living our best lives?
Time
Smart
is
your
playbook for taking back the
time
you lose to mindless tasks and unfulfilling chores. Author and Harvard Business School professor Ashley Whillans will give you proven strategies for improving
your
"
time
affluence." Sometimes you can find
time
lost to thoughtless activity--like mindlessly checking
your
phone. Sometimes you can find
time
by buying
your
way out of time-consuming, unrewarding tasks--for instance, by paying for a ride to work. The techniques Whillans provides will free up seconds, minutes, and hours that, over the long term, become weeks of freed up
time
you can reinvest in positive, healthy activities.
Time
Smart
doesn't stop at telling you what to do. It also shows you
how
to do it, helping you achieve the mind-set shift that will make these activities part of
your
everyday regimen. At every step,
Time
Smart
provides assessments, checklists, and activities you can use right away. Before you've finished reading chapter 1, you'll be accounting for
your
time
and thinking about ways to change. Whillans knows what works. A leading voice in
time
and happiness research, she's worked with groups as diverse as large consulting firms, couples, the US military, and women with limited means managing vegetable stands in Kenya. The strategies she presents are proven through research and brought to
life
by the stories of people making the shift--or trying to make the shift--in order to create
happier
, more fulfilling lives."--From publisher.
