In brief

You’ll learn how to reassess your weekly time allocation and reclaim hours for priorities by tracking commitments realistically. Laura Vanderkam’s research-backed approach helps busy people identify unused time and redirect it toward meaningful activities. Ideal for those feeling stretched thin but unsure where time slips away.

Description from the creator

There are 168 hours in each week. How do we find time for what matters most? Time management expert Laura Vanderkam studies how busy people spend their lives, and she's discovered that many of us drastically overestimate our commitments each week, while underestimating the time we have to ourselves. She offers a few practical strategies to help find more time for what matters to us, so we can "build the lives we want in the time we've got."
