Tough subject but real. I loved the way towards the end of the book the author had 10 tools to help you reach your finitude.

Do yourself a favor and read this before going down a rabbit hole of productivity books and articles.
"You will never get everything done, and that’s okay. What matters is getting the right things done."
"Time management is not about squeezing more into your schedule but about deciding what to leave out."

One of the best book of the year and the best one on the subject.
A completely different kind of time management book. While not explicitly spiritual, I appreciated how much ancient and religious wisdom Burkeman drew on to lay out a really compelling premise: you will never have time to accomplish it all, see it all, or experience it all. A human life is simply too finite to fit it all in, so it comes down to making real choices. What kind of life will you choose to live moment-by-moment? Burkeman’s starting place and his advice on narrowing down the options make for a refreshing approach that can serve as a respite from books that would have you believe you can fit it all in if you just try harder.
Amazing book! So well written and packed with essential truths and realities. I want to read this again on my Kindle, take my time (letting tasks take as long as they need to take), and take notes so I can internalize the profound wisdom in this book.
