Sample Key Takeaways from Chapter 1
Number One
Modern life has deprived us of opportunities for rest and forced us to trade quantity for quality. It has led us to believe that long hours are necessary to produce great work. As a result, overworking is normalized and people wear fatigue as a badge of honor.
Number Two
With the growth of global industries and the proliferation of digital tools that let you work anywhere and anytime, opportunities for work expand. People now think of work as something you do all day. Because of this, resting becomes almost impossible.
Number Three
The problem of overwork has recently become more pervasive due to the erosion of labor unions and workplace protections. Global competition, decreased job security, flat wages, and increased rent have forced workers to push for longer hours and work harder to stay in place.
