Description

Meditations for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman. Offers a guide to "imperfectionism," a philosophy emphasizing acceptance of human limitations rather than striving for unattainable control. It's structured around four weekly sections, each presenting daily meditations exploring themes like finite time, taking imperfect action, letting go, and showing up authentically. The text features quotes from various sources and personal anecdotes, illustrating Burkeman's arguments. Ultimately, the book encourages readers to find meaning and fulfillment not through perfect productivity, but through embracing life's inherent limitations and uncertainties.
