168 HoursBy: Laura Vanderkam It's an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are starved for time. We tell ourselves we'd like to read more, get to the gym regularly, try new hobbies, and accomplish all kinds of goals. But then we give up because there just aren't enough hours to do it all. Or if we don't make excuses, we make sacrifices taking time out from other things in order to fit it all in. There has to be a better way and Laura Vanderkam has found one.
