The Paradox of Time Freedom

In her book, 'Off the Clock: Feel Less Busy While Getting More Done,' Laura Vanderkamp explores the paradox between being aware of where our time goes and transcending the obsession with minutes. Time freedom, as Vanderkamp argues, stems from time discipline and intentional time management.
