Acerca de esta escucha
In a world where time is money, faster is better, and "if you snooze you lose", millions of people are doing the unthinkable: They're slowing down. What's more amazing, they're healthier, happier, and excelling at both work and play. You know the dilemma: When there already aren't enough hours in the day, how can slowing down be the solution? In The Power of Slow, best-selling author Carl Honoré shows you how to lead a richer, more rewarding life by joining the "slow revolution" that is sweeping across the globe.
Honoré traced the myriad ways the slow revolution is taking hold across the United States and beyond, from corporate culture to medicine to city planning. Now he invites you to experience the power of slow firsthand as you "put on the brakes" in order to learn:
- The Velocity Audit - a three-step process for pinpointing the areas in your life where you may need to slow down, and getting past the deep-seated objections that often arise
- Finding "the right speed" for any job to make time your ally, not your enemy
- Invoking your Inner Tortoise - a powerful mind-body method for accessing an "oasis of calm" whenever you need it
The slow philosophy is about giving each task the time and focus that it deserves so that you do it better and enjoy it more. Packed with guided exercises for staying productive while slowing down the way you eat, email, work out, and more, The Power of Slow gives you the confidence and tools finally to break free from the cult of speed.

We live in the age of speed. We strain to be more efficient, to cram more into each minute, each hour, each day. Since the Industrial Revolution shifted the world into high gear, the cult of speed has pushed us to a breaking point. Consider these facts: Americans on average spend 72 minutes of every day behind the wheel of a car, a typical business executive now loses 68 hours a year to being put on hold, and American adults currently devote on average a mere half hour per week to making love.

As high achievers, we’ve been conditioned to believe that the path to success is paved with relentless work. That if we want to overachieve, we have to overexert, overthink, and overdo. That if we aren’t perpetually exhausted, we’re not doing enough. But lately, working hard is more exhausting than ever. And the more depleted we get, the more effort it takes to make progress. Stuck in an endless loop of “Zoom, eat, sleep, repeat”, we’re often working twice as hard to achieve half as much.

Everywhere around you are distractions: That text you respond to quickly, just to get it out of the way. The newest money-making side hustle to cross your mind. The evening spent organizing your overflowing kitchen cupboards. Disruptions are the enemies of a life well lived—both the new distractions of our generation and timeless ones that have existed for centuries. They all add up to make you feel restless, tired, and unfulfilled. They’re keeping you from living with joy, from accomplishing the good that only you can do.
