“Profound idea that everyone has a primary time focus: either Futurefocused, Presentfocused, or Pastfocused. Fascinating implications of each. Because I'm so futurefocused, reading this book helped me understand people who are very presentfocused. Also great advice on shifting your focus when needed. I read it 7 years ago, but still think about it almost every day.”

Consider The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse by Charlie Mackesy. Recommended by 8 sources.
“Soft-spoken, heavily illustrated fable built from short dialogues and watercolor sketches. Each spread pairs a spare line of text with a loose drawing, so the pleasure is visual and aphoristic rather than narrative; readers collect felt-true sentences more than plot. Most useful when you want quick consolations, a prompt for conversation with a child, or a pause during a rough day. Limiting if you want sustained argument, concrete advice, or tightly plotted storytelling: the repetition of gentleness can feel sentimental or thin after a while.”
