Best of “How To”: Spend Time on What You Value

This new season of How To is a collection of our favorite episodes from past seasons-a best-of series focused on slowing down, making space, and finding meaning in our hectic lives. This first episode, from our third season called How to Build a Happy Life, features the Harvard Business School professor Ashley Whillans in conversation with host Arthur Brooks. The two explore how to think differently about the time you crave and the time you actually have.

I enjoy this kind of content far more than politics. Thanks.

When I was young, I decided I didn’t want to work a regular job. I figured starting a business was the way to go. I failed a lot, and people called me lazy, a loser, and a slacker because I wouldn’t hold down a job. But I wasn’t lazy-I just believed my time was my own.
At 38, one of my businesses finally took off. I haven’t worked for anyone since. Now I’m 52, wealthier than the people who mocked me, and living life exactly how I want. Those same people now call me a genius and ask for advice on how to live like me.
I wake up when I want, go where I want, and don’t buy into the idea that you have to stay busy all the time. It’s just a system designed to keep you miserable. Even if I die young, I’ve lived longer than most of those naysayers because my time is my time.
