Oliver Burkeman Quotes

“I think the reason that we seek distraction is that working on stuff that we care about is often scary. It brings us into contact with all the ways in which we’re limited—our talents might not be up to what we’re trying to do, and we can’t control how things will unfold.”

Oliver Burkeman

“A life spent chasing the mythical state of being able to do everything is less meaningful than a life of focusing on a few things that count.”

Oliver Burkeman
