“People who are time poor are less happy, less productive, and more stressed-out.6 They exercise less, eat fattier food, and have a higher incidence of cardiovascular disease.7 Time”
Ashley Whillans, Time Smart: How to Reclaim Your Time and Live a Happier Life

“Nothing has changed about the choice except what you’ve spent to get the tickets: time in the first case, money in the second. What this and other experiments confirm is what you might expect: we are more sensitive to small losses of money than small losses of time. We feel we’ve lost more if we choose cheaper tickets than we do if we choose tickets based on working fewer hours. You probably felt this when you were making the ticket choice. Two hundred dollars is a lot to give up. On the other hand, fifteen hours of time isn’t that much more than five hours.”
Ashley Whillans, Time Smart: How to Reclaim Your Time and Live a Happier Life

“No matter our age, education, or income, we share the same reality: none of us knows how much time we have left. One day, time runs out and tomorrow never comes. This is one of the core discoveries I’ve made researching time and money: we don’t understand well that time is our most valuable resource, and it is finite. Chasing money is valuable to a point, but it’s an infinite errand. You can always try to get more—and research shows people do that, no matter how much money they have already. Given how precious time is, we should put it first. But many of us focus on our careers, constantly giving up more of our time in exchange for more money or productivity.”
