Hyperfocus

Our attention has never been as overwhelmed or in-demand as it is today; we've never been so busy while accomplishing so little, and we've grown uncomfortable with boredom and a lack of stimulation and distraction.

In Hyperfocus, Chris Bailey - described by TED.com as 'the most productive man you could ever hope to meet' - provides profound insights into how we can best manage our attention. He reveals how the brain switches between two mental modes - hyperfocus, our deep concentration mode, and scatterfocus, our creative, reflective mode - and how the surest path to being our most creative and efficient selves at work to combine them both.

The often counterintuitive wisdom at play includes:
- How working fewer hours increases our productivity
- How drinking caffeine strategically instead of habitually gives us more energy
- How we get more done by making our work harder, not easier
- How we do our best creative work when we're the most tired

Merging neuroscience, psychology and mindfulness, with practical takeaways for being more focused in our work and wider lives, Hyperfocus will help you think about and manage your attention on a daily basis.

Atentia noastra nu a fost niciodata atat de coplesita sau de solicitata ca si astazi; nu am fost niciodata atat de ocupati in timp ce realizam atat de putin si ne-am simtit incomod cu plictiseala si cu lipsa de stimulare si distragere a atentiei. In Hyperfocus, Chris Bailey - descris de TED.com drept „cel mai productiv om pe care l-ai putea spera vreodata sa intalniti - ofera informatii profunde despre modul in care ne putem gestiona cel mai bine atentia.
