The Four-Hour Workweek

The Four-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss is a lifestyle and business book that encourages readers to rethink work, time, and money to create more freedom-filled lives. Through case studies and tactics, Ferriss discusses automation, outsourcing, and challenging assumptions about traditional careers. Many homeschooling parents read it not as a literal four-hour goal, but as inspiration for designing flexible work that supports family-centered living. Some ideas won’t fit every value set, but as a widely available paperback or library book, it offers thought-provoking experiments at relatively low cost.
