When: the scientific secrets of perfect timing

| Summary: | Everyone knows that timing is everything. But we don't know much about timing itself. Our lives are a never-ending stream of "when" decisions: when to start a business, schedule a class, get serious about a person. Yet we make those decisions based on intuition and guesswork. Drawing on a rich trove of research from psychology, biology, and economics, Daniel Pink reveals how best to live, work, and succeed. How can we use the hidden patterns of the day to build the ideal schedule? Why do certain breaks dramatically improve student test scores? How can we turn a stumbling beginning into a fresh start? Why should we avoid going to the hospital in the afternoon? Why is singing in time with other people as good for you as exercise? And what is the ideal time to quit a job, switch careers, or get married? Pink distills cutting-edge research and data on timing and synthesizes them into a readable narrative packed with irresistible stories and practical takeaways that give readers compelling insights into how we can live richer, more engaged lives |

Introduction: Captain Turner’s Decision
PART ONE. THE DAY
1. The Hidden Pattern of Everyday Life
“Across continents and time zones, as predictable as the ocean tides,
was the same daily oscillation—a peak, a trough, and a rebound.”
2. Afternoons and Coffee Spoons: The Power of Breaks,
the Promise of Lunch, and the Case for a Modern Siesta
“A growing body of science makes it clear: Breaks are not a sign of
sloth but a sign of strength.”
PART TWO. BEGINNINGS, ENDINGS,
AND IN BETWEEN
3. Beginnings: Starting Right, Starting Again,
and Starting Together
“Most of us have harbored a sense that beginnings are significant. Now
the science of timing has shown that they’re even more powerful than
we suspected. Beginnings stay with us far longer than we know;
their effects linger to the end.”
4. Midpoints: What Hanukkah Candles and Midlife Malaise
Can Teach Us About Motivation
“When we reach a midpoint, sometimes we slump, but other times we
jump. A mental siren alerts us that we’ve squandered half of our time.”
5. Endings: Marathons, Chocolates,
and the Power of Poignancy
“Yet, when endings become salient—whenever we enter an act three
of any kind—we sharpen our existential red pencils and scratch out
anyone or anything nonessential.”
PART THREE.
SYNCHING AND THINKING
6. Synching Fast and Slow: The Secrets of Group Tinning
“Synchronizing makes us feel good—and feeling good helps a group’s
wheels turn more smoothly. Coordinating with others also makes us
do good—and doing good enhances synchronization.”
7. Thinking in Tenses: A Few Final Words
“Most of the world’s languages mark verbs with time using tenses—
especially past, present, and future—to convey meaning and reveal
thinking. Nearly every phrase we utter is tinged with time.”
