Hello friends, welcome back to the show.

My guest today is Oliver Bergman, his journalist and an author, and we are talking about how

to properly manage your time.

Time is something we all wish we had more of, and tons of productivity gurus have proposed

strategies to stop it from slipping through our fingers.

After years of investigating and reporting on cutting-edge productivity for the Guardian,

Oliver has arrived at a slightly different world view of time and how we should manage

it.

Today, expect to learn why becoming more efficient often just leads to you getting more useless

work done.

The fundamental problems which all time management strategies fail to address, how deciding

what you're going to fail at is a superpower, the danger of seeing your leisure time as

an arena for self-improvement, and much more.

As you might be able to hear, I am still on the recovery road back from Larenjitis, which

caused me to completely lose the ability to make sounds out of my face.

Hopefully, I've got an episode this Thursday that I recorded during the mid-st of it because

I had to get it done.

So, you can look forward to that sultry seductive affair, but that being said, I'm glad that

I got it when I did.

Because over the next few months, I've got episodes coming up with Aubrey Marcus, Ryan

Holiday, Robert Green, Joan Navarro, Dan Jones, General Stanley McChrystal, John McWerter,

and Andrew Hubertman, Lots and Lots to look forward to.
