264: MVP-Choose to Choose (Oliver Burkeman)

The Elegant Warrior with Heather Hansen

For the holiday week, I’m re-releasing one of my MVP (Most Valuable Podcast) episodes. Author Oliver Burkeman explains how we can all gain a new relationship with time and stop pushing ourselves to fit it all in.

~ WE’LL DISCUSS ~

• Why our time is finite
• The reality behind procrastination
• Why we should focus on enjoying the things we have time for and not the things we don’t

Oliver’s book recommendation, Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life by James Hollis
