18 Minutes: Find Your Focus, Master Distraction, and Get the Right Things Done

Mastering productivity in under twenty minutes daily.

If the constant buzz of notifications and tasks leaves you feeling scatterbrained, "18 Minutes" might just be your guide back to clarity. Peter Bregman's method isn't just theory; it's designed for the trenches of the too-busy workday. It's compact enough for a quick read, and practical enough to change how you manage your day—and maybe your life. Give it a shot if you're ready to refine your focus and truly prioritize your time.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Based upon his weekly Harvard Business Review columns (which is one of the most popular columns on HBR.com, receiving hundreds of thousands of unique page views a month), 18 Minutes clearly shows how busy people can cut through all the daily clutter and distractions and find a way to focus on those key items which are truly the top priorities in our lives. Bregman works from the premise that the best way to combat constant and distracting interruptions is to create productive distractions of one's own. Based upon a series of short bite-sized chapters, his approach allows us to safely navigate through the constant chatter of emails, text messages, phone calls, and endless meetings that prevent us from focusing our time on those things that are truly important to us. Mixing first-person insights along with unique case studies, Bregman sprinkles his charming book with pathways which help guide us -- pathways that can get us on the right trail in 18 minutes or less.
