Some tips I used already but there are new ones that I can add to my collection to improve my productivity. it was nice to hear about the breakdown of scatter focus and how one could use that to improve creativity as well as collecting and connecting dots which is a strategy that I've switched to. I'll be reviewing the notes I took and seeing what I can apply to my existing process. ( ) Hyperfocus assembles all of the latest and longstanding insights about how our brain can use focused attention and open awareness to solve problems and invent new possibilities. We've long been riding modern tools on a path that diverges from our evolutionary roots. Email and cell phones have accelerated that divergence substantially. Throughout this book, Bailey leverages a simple model about our mindshare to illustrate the benefits of using hyperfocus and "scatterfocus" to be intentional and creative. I was already more conservative about my phone use than most people, and now I'm inspired to be even more selective about how I use all my time. There's a quick and instructive exercise where you break your activities into a 2x2 grid (Attractive and unattractive, and Productive and unproductive). This book would especially benefit students who have grown up digital natives, not to mention anyone scared by the idea of being alone with their own thoughts. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
A practical guide to managing your attention--the most powerful resource you have to get stuff done, become more creative, and live a meaningful life Our attention has never been as overwhelmed as it is today. Many of us recognize that our brains struggle to multitask. Despite this, we feel compelled to do so anyway while we fill each moment of our lives to the brim with mindless distraction. Hyperfocus provides profound insights into how you can best take charge of your attention to achieve a greater sense of purpose and productivity throughout the day. The most recent neuroscientific research reveals that our brain has two powerful modes that can be unlocked when we use our attention effectively: a focused mode (hyperfocus), which is the foundation for being highly productive, and a creative mode (scatterfocus), which enables us to connect ideas in novel ways. Hyperfocus helps you access each of the two mental modes so you can concentrate more deeply, think more clearly, and work and live more deliberately every day. Chris Bailey examines such topics such as: * identifying and dealing with the four key types of distraction and interruption; * establishing a clear physical and mental environment in which to work; * controlling motivation and working fewer hours to become more productive; * taking time-outs with intention; * multitasking strategically; and * learning when to pay attention and when to let your mind wander wherever it wants to. By transforming how you think about your attention, Hyperfocus reveals that the more effectively you learn to take charge of it, the better you'll be able to manage every aspect of your life.
