In a world flooded with advice promising wellness and success, time and talent often go underused. With the average full-time worker spending 80,000 hours on the job, are you truly maximizing that time? Do you genuinely believe in your daily work?

Rutger Bregman, internationally bestselling author, argues that moral ambition—the drive to improve the world—allows us to be both idealistic and effective. By examining the traits of history’s most impactful change-makers, he reveals how we can apply our skills to urgent global issues like climate change, inequality, and pandemics. This book challenges you to make your life not easier, but profoundly meaningful. What will you choose to do?
