Description:

Addressing the fundamental questions about how to live, Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts offers a powerful new way to act on what counts: a guiding philosophy of life Oliver Burkeman calls “imperfectionism.” It helps us tackle challenges as they crop up in our daily lives: our finite time, the lure of distraction, the impossibility of doing anything perfectly.

Burkeman will be in conversation with Daniel Pink, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of several provocative, bestselling books about business, work, creativity, and behavior, including The Power of Regret; When; To Sell Is Human; Drive; and A Whole New Mind.
