Recommendation
Most time management books focus on how you can squeeze more work into your day. In this encouraging text, however, award-winning teacher and time and happiness researcher Cassie Holmes shows you how and why to make time for happiness. Too often, people try to do it all and end up frazzled and frustrated. By mapping how you spend time now, identifying what matters to you, prioritizing the activities you value, and learning to be present in the moment, you can start your days with hope and enthusiasm, end them with joy and satisfaction, and get everything done in between.
