Four Hour Work Week: Realistic in 2023?

The article explores the concept of the four-hour workweek popularized by Timothy Ferriss in his book from the early 2000s. It reflects on the feasibility of such a model in today's work environment, particularly with the rise of remote work due to the global pandemic. While achieving a strict four-hour workweek may be unrealistic, the article discusses the potential for increased flexibility and work-life balance afforded by remote work. It examines challenges such as the "always-on" culture and technological distractions, while also highlighting positive trends like rising awareness of employee well-being and experiments with shorter workweeks. Ultimately, while a four-hour workweek may remain elusive, the evolving work landscape offers opportunities for greater autonomy and flexibility in how and where work is done.
