Why are we so stressed & overwhelmed? Why do we have clear & compelling goals but fail to reach them? How can we want to change so desperately yet make choices that keep us from that change?

LikedThere’s only so much you can do in a week – or, according to Oliver Burkeman, in the roughly 4,000 weeks the average human lives. Oliver is a journalist and author of the books Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, Meditations for Mortals, and the newsletter “The Imperfectionist.” Chris and Oliver discuss the paradox of why change can only occur once we accept that we might not be able to change. Oliver also shares how life’s mishaps can become our most treasured memories and why sharing your imperfections is an act of generosity.

Episode 3556:
Choosing to step away from the relentless culture of busyness requires intentionality. Julianna Poplin challenges the automatic urge to fill our schedules, urging us to examine our motives, set clear boundaries, and pause before saying yes. By consciously opting for a slower pace, we reclaim time for what truly matters, whether that’s family, rest, or simply enjoying life’s little moments.
Read along with the original article(s) here: https://nosidebar.com/culture-of-busy/
Quotes to ponder:
"It’s not that we are already busy. It’s that we don’t want to become busy, and that’s why we don’t do these extra things. We are intentionally un-busy."
"We sign onto things without knowing why we are doing them. We go with the flow of what other parents do, what friends do, or what our family does without stopping to ask questions."
"The world will fill your schedule up until you’re drained and exhausted. Choosing to let go of busyness will mean you get used to saying no and saying it often."
