How To Build a Happy Life: Spend Time on What You Value
Podcast: How to Know What’s RealPublished On: Mon Oct 24 2022
Description: We try to use our time wisely—both at work and in leisure—but we often waste it. We may blame work for stripping us of recreation, but when valuable free time comes around, we can often revert back to more work. What explains the gap between how we use our time and how we want to use our time? A conversation with Harvard Business School professor Ashley Whillans helps us analyze our complex relationship with time and how to orient our time use around what we value.
