I have never read it so chose to read it. Thoughts: Full Book Name: 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think * Author Name: Laura Vanderkam * Book Genre: Business, Nonfiction, Personal Development, Productivity, Self Help * ISBN # 9781591843313 * Date of Publication: 2010-5-26 Vanderkam wrote this after establishing a blog about using her time efficiently. It starts an exercise: List 100 things you want to do with your time. I often have the list that goes on and on and on. The second exercise keep a time log. It helps me be aware of my thoughts and what I do. Sometimes my mind runs-jumping from one thing to the next. I get distracted at times. Why I finished this read: I finished it because I enjoyed what she was saying. For me it was not a demand, it was about developing an awareness of what I fill my 168 hour of my week with. Time is highly elastic and time stretches to accommodate what we choose to put into it.” Everything I do is my choice.” What I learned is I can look at the whole of time I have and I can put the important things I want to into the time I have. In the end it is about being mindful of the time I have and put into it what I want. Stars rating: 5 of 5 stars. (  ) DrT | Feb 18, 2024 | ) amandabeaty | Jan 4, 2024 | There are some great ideas in this book. However, sometimes it is a bit chaotic and over-detailed with data from the American Time Survey. I listened to it on Audible so a lot of data can make it very confusing, maybe that is less the case if you read it. There is also a focus on more "rich people" possibilities to increase the time you have to focus on what you want, which can be hit or miss for some people. For me, mostly a miss 'cause I just don't have the financial room to hire a fulltime cleaning service or personal chef. Nevertheless, it helped me realise how much time you actually have and how you can be more mindful about it. All by all, quite a decent read and even though I will not use all of the concepts there are some ideas of Laura Vanderkam that I can incorporate into my own life.

There are 168 hours in a week. This book is about where the time really goes, and how we can all use it better. It's an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are starved for time. With the rise of two-income families, extreme jobs, and 24/7 connectivity, life is so frenzied we can barely find time to breathe. We tell ourselves we'd like to read more, get to the gym regularly, try new hobbies, and accomplish all kinds of goals. But then we give up because there just aren't enough hours to do it all. Or else, if we don't make excuses, we make sacrifices. To get ahead at work we spend less time with our spouses. To carve out more family time, we put off getting in shape. To train for a marathon, we cut back on sleep. There has to be a better way-and Laura Vanderkam has found one. After interviewing dozens of successful, happy people, she realized that they allocate their time differently than most of us. Instead of letting the daily grind crowd out the important stuff, they start by making sure there's time for the important stuff. They focus on what they do best and what only they can do. When plans go wrong and they run out of time, only their lesser priorities suffer. It's not always easy, but the payoff is enormous. Vanderkam shows that it really is possible to sleep eight hours a night, exercise five days a week, take piano lessons, and write a novel without giving up quality time for work, family, and other things that really matter. The key is to start with a blank slate and to fill up your 168 hours only with things that deserve your time. Of course, you probably won't read to your children at 2:00 am, or skip a Wednesday morning meeting to go hiking, but you can cut back on how much you watch TV, do laundry, or spend time on other less fulfilling activities. Vanderkam shares creative ways to rearrange your schedule to make room for the things that matter most. 168 Hours is a fun, inspiring, practical guide that will help men and women of any age, lifestyle, or career get the most out of their time and their lives.
