| book description |

El autor de Cuatro mil semanas, la nueva voz de la conciencia para una sociedad desquiciada por los objetivos imposibles. ¿Cómo aceptar los límites intrínsecos de nuestra existencia? ¿Cómo tomar buenas decisiones cuando siempre estamos desbordados? ¿Y si, para ser verdaderamente productivos, tuviéramos que dejar que las cosas sucedan en lugar de provocarlas? En su nuevo libro, Burkeman insiste en la importancia de liberarse de los ideales y los retos inalcanzables y propone un cambio de paradigma adoptando el imperfeccionismo como filosofía de vida. Si Cuatro mil semanas abordaba la aceptación de los límites de la existencia humana, este nuevo libro nos enseña a volver a lo esencial y escapar de la presión constante de una sociedad que nos empuja a la acumulación. Inspirado en la sabiduría de los antiguos maestros, la literatura clásica, la religión y la psicología, ofrece herramientas prácticas para redescubrir el sentido de la vida. Concebido como un retiro espiritual de 28 días, esta obra es una guía esclarecedora para establecer objetivos alcanzables y llevar una vida más sana, libre y feliz. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the author of Four Thousand Weeks, a new voice of conscience for a society unhinged by impossible goals. How can we accept the intrinsic limits of our existence? How do we make good decisions when we are constantly overwhelmed? What if, to be truly productive, we needed to let things happen rather than force them? In his new book, Burkeman emphasizes the importance of freeing ourselves from ideals and unattainable challenges and proposes a paradigm shift by adopting imperfectionism as a life philosophy. Whereas Four Thousand Weeks addressed accepting human limits, this new work teaches us to return to essentials and escape the relentless pressure to accumulate. Drawing on the wisdom of ancient teachers, classical literature, religion, and psychology, it offers practical tools to rediscover meaning. Designed as a 28-day spiritual retreat, this book is an illuminating guide to set achievable goals and live a healthier, freer, and happier life.
