Uma semana tem 168 horas. Como arranjamos tempo para aquilo que é mais importante? A especialista em gestão de tempo, Laura Vanderkam, estuda como as pessoas muito ocupadas passam a sua vida, e descobriu que muitos de nós sobrestimamos drasticamente os nossos compromissos semanais, enquanto subestimamos o tempo que temos para nós mesmos. Laura oferece algumas estratégias práticas para nos ajudar a encontrar tempo para as coisas que são mais importantes para nós, para que possamos "construir as vidas que queremos no tempo que temos."
