Story
There are 168 hours in a week. This book is about where the time really goes, and how we can all use it better. It's an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are starved for time. With the rise of two-income families, extreme jobs, and 24/7 connectivity, life is so frenzied we can barely find time to breathe. We tell ourselves we'd like to read more, get to the gym regularly, try new hobbies, and accomplish all kinds of goals.

Story
Why is profitable growth so hard to achieve and sustain? Most executives manage their companies as if the solution to that problem lies in the external environment: find an attractive market, formulate the right strategy, win new customers. But when Bain & Company's Chris Zook and James Allen researched this question, they found that when companies fail to achieve their growth targets, 90 percent of the time the root causes are internal, not external.

Publisher's Summary
Despite our good intentions, many of us experience a chronic imbalance between the desire to live our values and the distractions and never-ending to-do lists that can get in the way. In Your 168: Finding Purpose and Satisfaction in a Values-Based Life, listeners learn how to pursue a values-based life by identifying and committing to their values and priorities. Best-selling author Harry Kraemer uses personal stories and insights from others to help listeners discover the dissonance between what they say is most important and where they actually devote their time. This is an eye-opener for most people, uncovering the obstacles to leading a value-based life.
In Your 168, you will learn how to make changes and build new habits that put your values first by:
- Using self-reflection to identify what matters most and become more aware of how you spend your time
- Reevaluating priorities such as career, family, health, recreation, spirituality, and making a difference
- Avoiding unpleasant "surprises" and "hitting the brick wall"
- Experiencing better balance in real time amid shifting priorities - personally and professionally
