Embrace Finitude: Productivity Reimagined — The Rich Roll Podcast (5-min Digest)
Update: 2025-11-24
Description
What if chasing productivity is the very thing making you miserable? In this 5-minute distilled conversation (original 2 hours), Rich Roll and guest Oliver Burkeman flip the script on time management and productivity. Rich and Oliver show how accepting human limits — not hacking them away — frees attention, reduces anxiety, and makes meaningful work possible. You'll learn why trying to control time breeds procrastination and overwhelm, how to practice ‘‘dailyish’’ habits, use a done-list, freewrite to break paralysis, and become a wiser procrastinator. Insights cover deep work, attention management, perfectionism, acceptance, and small-step momentum. Rich Roll’s candid vulnerability and Oliver Burkeman’s practical reframes (from 4,000 Weeks and Meditations for Mortals) give clear takeaways you can apply today. Listen now to get the key ideas in minutes.
