I walk out of movie theaters. If I don't like the movie, I'll leave. I'll sit down at restaurants, and if I don't like the menu, I'll get up and go somewhere else. It doesn't matter if I've already sat down. And I think it might feel a little bit strange to some people at first, but it's going to also bring you relief, and you're going to feel proud of yourself.

When I came up with the concept for this book, Mike, I think it's, you know, I've been writing books for 15 years. I don't think I've had anything that is as universally resonant. You know, if I would talk to people and they're like, what are you working on? You know, time anxiety, pretty much every person was like, I have that or I identify with that or whatever.

They would immediately start describing what it looks like to them. So I think it's very common. I think it's in the culture. I think there are two types of it. One type is what I call existential, where it's kind of like time is running out. There's not enough time in my life. And the other kind is that day to day. What should I do next? There's not enough time to do everything.

I can't make decisions. I'm just struggling because there's so much to do. So you said, like, are you wrong? I think, well, I think you might have some cognitive distortions that affect your working process, but I don't think you're unusual to feel like, wow, there's this time pressure that I feel all the time. And what is the best remedy for that?

great thing to do whether it's maybe this might not work when you first wake up but any point during out during the day is to just kind of look back i call this your your last 40 minutes okay so you look back and like how did i spend the last 40 minutes i like 40 minutes rather than an hour for some reason it's this really specific amount of time and you can just ask yourself was that time valuable
