Happier hour : how to beat distraction, expand your time, and focus on what matters most

Holmes, Cassie. (Author).

We live in a culture where most of us suffer from feeling "time poor": the feeling of sprinting from morning to night-stressing over too much to do and not enough time to do it. Cassie Holmes has made this question her life's work: How do we optimally spend our time so that we feel satisfied in the day-to-day and with life overall? With clear, actionable advice from how to be confident in choosing how to spend your time, to how to sidestep distractions and be present, HAPPIER HOUR gives you all the tools you need to feel time rich and confidently design your schedule as a beautiful and colorful mosaic with you as the artist. We're each allotted 24 hours per day and a lifetime of years to optimally invest. How we spend our time comprises our constant stream of experiences, the lives we live, and the memories we leave behind. With this book, you'll learn how to craft the time of your life. It all starts with a happier hour.

Summary

Happier Hour : How to Beat Distraction, Expand Your Time, and Focus on What Matters Most


Learn how to reframe your time around life's happiest moments to build days that aren't just full but fulfilling with this "joyful guide" ( Eve Rodsky, New York Time s bestselling author) that is the antidote to overscheduling. Our most precious resource isn't money. It's time. We are allotted just twenty-four hours a day, and we live in a culture that keeps us feeling "time poor." Since we can't add more hours to the day, how can we experience our lives as richer? Based on her wildly popular MBA class at UCLA, Professor Cassie Holmes demonstrates how to immediately improve our lives by changing how we perceive and invest our time. Happier Hour provides empirically based insights and easy-to-implement tools that will allow you to: -Optimally spend your hours and feel confident in those choices -Sidestep distractions -Create and savor moments of joy -Design your schedule with purpose -Look back on your years without regrets Enlivened by Holmes's upbeat narrative and groundbreaking research, Happier Hour "is filled with loads and loads of practical, evidence-based advice for how to live better by investing in what really matters. It's the kind of book that can change your life for the better" (Laurie Santos, Yale professor and host of The Happiness Lab podcast).
