I would do pretty much anything Oliver Burkeman told me to do. The self-help guru for readers allergic to self-help, Burkeman gained worldwide acclaim with Four Thousand Weeks. This follow-up has practical tips for implementing his credo of "imperfectionism". Tom
Meditations for Mortals begins with the reality in which we actually find ourselves, not with fantasies of an ideal existence. Reflecting on ideas from philosophy, religion, psychology and self-help, it offers us a powerful and practical new way to do what counts: a guiding outlook Oliver Burkeman calls ‘imperfectionism’. This book is a profound and liberating crash course in living more fully.
It overturns much familiar advice and opens a gateway to a saner, freer and more enchantment-filled life.
