Subtitle: How to cheat time, live more, and enhance happiness
Author: Benjamin P. Hardy
About the author
Benjamin Hardy is a writer whom I've been following since he was a blogger. In my opinion, his secret of success is honesty. He only writes about things that worked for him. His writing isn't instructional like most self-help books. It's more of a documentation of his own discoveries in life. The author also does a lot of disciplined reading and uses quotes wherever possible.
Concepts
Time is more about distance traveled.
Some people live more in a day than others do in years.
Time slows down when you are doing meaningful things you love. Time speeds up when you are doing things you don't like.
Slipstreaming is like taking a wormhole and reaching your destination using much less time than usually required.
Critique
In the beginning parts of the book, the author mixes up science and self-help giving the impression of pseudo-science to the more scientifically astute readers.
