Why do we keep getting time estimates wrong—even when we’ve done the task before?

Time Sense offers a groundbreaking and deeply human look at the hidden forces that sabotage our ability to estimate how long things take. Drawing from real-world experience and psychological insight, Rakesh M R takes readers on a journey from personal frustration to practical mastery.

You’ll learn why smart people still misjudge time, how emotional friction and workplace politics distort our estimates, and what expert estimators intuitively understand that the rest of us miss.

More than a productivity book, Time Sense is a guide to reclaiming clarity, trust, and control over your schedule—at work, in life, and in your own mind.

Inside, you’ll discover:

Why estimates fail before the task even starts

The 4 invisible forces that distort every time prediction

How to move from “guesswork” to confident forecasting

What separates great estimators—and how to train your gut like one

How to escape the blame game and build trust through honest planning

And how to stop estimating just to survive—and start leading with clarity

Whether you're a professional, creative, leader, or someone just tired of running late and feeling overwhelmed, Time Sense will change how you think about time forever.

It’s not about being fast. It’s about being accurate—and honest—in a world that rewards illusion.
