Hvad ville der ske, hvis du holdt op med at prøve at nå det hele, så det endelig kunne lykkes dig at nå de ting, der virkelig betyder noget? Det moderne menneske er som besat af vores uendelige to do-lister og overfyldte indbakker, og vi kæmper en evindelig kamp mod distraktionerne og vores svindende koncentrations- evne. Alligevel formår vi sjældent at se sammenhængen mellem de daglige kampe mod tiden og det ultimative time management-problem: spørgsmålet om, hvordan vi bedst muligt skal spendere vores absurd korte tid på planeten – en tid, som i gennemsnit beløber sig til omkring fire tusind uger.

Den afviser vores nyttesløse besættelse af at nå det hele og introducerer os i stedet til red- skaber, der kan bruges til at konstruere et meningsfuldt liv ved at omfavne snarere end

To take a road trip to Success, we will need a destination as well as a GPS. Success is described here as the achievement of a goal. The goals we adopt may be the result of experience, vision or desire. They crystallize our desire to get to a better place. Having picked a goal for success, how do you get there? What drives you on? Some more popular goals include amassing wealth, gaining recognition and a desire to improve the lifestyle of others. It is also interesting to note that both philosophers as well as successful travellers on this road to success tell us that the journey is the real prize, not merely arriving at the destination. So what route does your roadmap follow? Whatever route you choose, the CelebrityExperts(R) in this book can mentor your trip. They have completed this trip before, and they know where the potholes and the dead-ends are. These successful people have trait
Somewhere along the way, we got distracted. As much as we multitask, love our devices and feel like we’re in control, deep down we know that something is off.
