Agenda

We are obsessed with time – with speed! Life is full of “hacks” and shortcuts and efficiencies to garner more time and do things faster.  But what do we do with the time we supposedly save? Often, we spend it chasing more speed. We fill the gaps with more tasks, more scrolling, more rushing.

The promise of happiness through acceleration is seductive, but it rarely delivers. This short book explores some ways we can think about slowing down. The idea was to write something simple. It is mostly a reminder! because life is so full, we often forget what matters.
