Burkeman emphasizes that life doesn’t need to be mastered; instead, our happiness and productivity may improve by embracing imperfections and limiting our quests for super-productivity.
He suggests we stop seeing our reading lists as something to empty, but rather as a flowing stream from which we can savor selected choices without guilt.
The book aims to provide a refreshing perspective on self-improvement, advocating for a rejection of self-help tropes like mastery and super-productivity in favor of acceptance.
Meditation for Mortals is organized into 28 short chapters meant for daily reading, ideal for those with attention issues, allowing for flexibility and reflection.
