We won't have to give up anything. We're being conned by ourselves and by (probably) well-meaning gurus who have solved this impossible dilemma.

There is a way out by recognizing the illusion through deep thinking. Some simple strategies and tools can help us reach a point where we can go a long way to high productivity in the things that matter to us most and feel fulfilled in our life and work – even though we might not conquer overwhelm 24 hours a day. But it opens the door to more flow states, the ultimate human experience.
