Absolutely loved this book, and basically read it cover to cover in less than a day. Lots of food for thought and great advice on the value of not being productive and the “right to be lazy.” I have a complex relationship to time and am what the author calls a “productivity geek,” but since becoming the chair of my department, I have come to realize that there will always be more tasks than I can ever actually accomplish. What’s worse, the more efficient I get at doing tasks, the more people give me new tasks to complete. Burkeman advises “strategic underachievement.” I have lots of great quotes underlined, but I am not going to type them up because Burkeman has convinced me to take the rest of the evening off.
