For most of us overwork is the new normal and rest is an afterthought. In our busy lives rest is defined as the absence of work: late-night TV binges hours spent trawling the internet something to do once we've finished everything else on our to-do lists. But dismissing rest stifles our ability to think creatively and truly recharge. In Rest Silicon Valley consultant Alex Pang argues that we can be more successful in all areas of our lives by recognizing the importance of rest: working better does not mean working more it means working less and resting better. Treating rest as a passive activity secondary to work undermines our chances for a rewarding and meaningful life. Whether by making space for daily naps as Winston Churchill did during World War II going on hours-long strolls like Charles Darwin or spending a week alone in a cabin like Bill Gates pursuing what Pang calls deliberate rest is the true key to fulfillment and creative success. Drawing on rigorous scientific evidence and revelatory historical examples Rest overturns everything our culture has taught us about work and shows that only by resting better can we start living better-- Provided by publisher
