Our most precious resource isn’t money. It’s time. We are allotted just twenty-four hours a day, and we live in a culture that keeps us feeling “time poor.” Since we can’t add more hours to the day, how can we experience our lives as richer?

From sidestepping distractions to savoring moments of joy, Professor Holmes will share practical, evidence-based strategies to live better by investing in what really matters.
