Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the perennial human struggle to live fully within the confines of a limited amount of time. The author, a keen observer of life, argues that most people feel a nagging dissatisfaction with their day-to-day routines, a feeling that they are not truly living to their full potential. This feeling stems from a deep-seated desire to accomplish something beyond the demands of our daily obligations, a desire that the author terms ââ Å"exceeding our programme.ââ  The author, who clearly comes from a period where it was common for people to have jobs that did not offer them much personal fulfillment, urges readers to recognize that the key to a more fulfilling life is not simply about managing our time more efficiently, but about making conscious choices that allow us to ââ Å"liveââ  rather than merely ââ Å"existââ Â. He suggests that it is through intentionally allocating time to activities that are personally meaningful, even if it means sacrificing some of our conventional pursuits, that we can truly find contentment. The book's central idea, that we are all endowed with a daily "income" of time that is both miraculous and precious, resonates with a timeless human concern about the fleeting nature of life. The author's message, however, transcends mere time management and speaks to a deeper truth about the inherent value of living a life that is full of purpose and meaning.
