From Wang Xiao, creator of China’s best-selling Chenzao Efficiency Planner—dubbed the 'Aladdin’s Lamp' for helping hundreds of thousands turn written wishes into real achievements—comes a game-changing time-management system. After discovering 99% of planner users fixated solely on worldly goals (promotions, homes, marriages) while sidelining personal joy, Wang set out to solve a universal struggle: How do we take back control of our time and live intentionally? The Five Kinds of Time framework breaks daily life into five distinct, actionable categories: Survival Time (the unavoidable grind we must overcome), Money-Making Time (building core competitiveness for long-term success), Beauty Time (nurturing physical vitality and confidence), Fun Time (embracing curiosity and unstructured joy), and Flow Time (the peak state of focused, fulfilling immersion). Packed with practical tools—like the Endgame Judgment Method (visualizing your funeral to clarify true priorities) and the Hardcore Life Equation (inspired by Alex Honnold’s historic free climb of El Capitan)—this book guides readers to 'fold' time, prioritize what matters most, and build a personalized 'time garden' that balances ambition and fulfillment. Real-world data, like Chenzao’s 100-day fitness challenge with a 74% completion rate, and examples from top athletes and creators prove this system works for anyone ready to stop just surviving and start thriving.

Time Garden Model

Treat daily time as a garden—survival time is basic plants, others (making money, good-looking, etc.) are chosen plants. Different ratios create unique life styles.
