单集简介 ...

Are you constantly overwhelmed by your to-do list? Obsessed with productivity hacks? Always feel like you’re falling behind? Trevor and Eugene sit down with author and journalist Oliver Burkeman to rethink our relationship with time, success, and control. They unpack why perfectionism can make us miserable, the surprising value of “good procrastination,” and why choosing what to fail at might actually be a good thing. Along the way, they explore the psychology behind our social media facades, how modern conveniences have made us less patient, and whether the secret to getting more out of life might be accepting that we can’t do everything.

  • Much every brand offers rewards these days, but let's be honest, most of them aren't all that rewarding.

  • Well, starting now, Verizon's doing rewards different.

  • Rewards you'll love all year round for every customer.

  • You see, they're introducing Verizon dollars, which gives you cash back every month just for being a customer.

  • That's it.

  • Plus, you have the flexibility to use those glorious new dollars how you actually want.

  • Shop with Verizon, get gift cards for the brands you love, or transfer them.

  • To the partner programs.
