Praktický průvodce ovládáním pozornosti – jedinečný nástroj, který vám umožní být kreativnější, produktivnější a žít smysluplněji Naše pozornost nebyla nikdy tak rozptylována jako dnes. Řada z nás si uvědomuje, jak mozek trpí neustálou snahou dělat víc věcí najednou. Přesto si to nedokážeme odpustit a navrch trávíme spoustu času zbytečnostmi. Náš mozek přitom nabízí dva účinné režimy, které můžeme spustit, když účelně využijeme svou pozornost. Hyperfocus – režim stoprocentního soustředění, který umožňuje být produktivnější. A scatterfocus – režim rozptýleného soustředění, který umožňuje být kreativnější a spojovat myšlenky novými způsoby. S pomocí knihy Koncentrace se naučíte tyto režimy využívat a ovládat svou pozornost. Autor Chris Bailey se kromě jiného zabývá tématy jako: • rozpoznání a zvládání čtyř hlavních druhů rozptylování • vytvoření jednoduchého a uspořádaného pracovního prostředí • zvyšování motivace a produktivity při snižování času věnovaného práci • záměrné vytváření přestávek během práce • strategické dělání několika věcí najednou • poznání, kdy se soustředit a kdy nechat svou mysl volně plynout

This engaging exploration delves into the universal quest for enhanced productivity in work and life. Chris Bailey, driven by a passion for productivity since his teenage years, opted to forgo lucrative job offers to dedicate a year to experimenting with various productivity techniques. After earning his business degree, he documented his self-experiments on a blog, while also interviewing leading experts like Charles Duhigg and David Allen. His experiments included weeks of minimal sleep, cutting out caffeine and sugar, isolating himself for ten days, limiting smartphone use, gaining muscle, extending his workweek to 90 hours, and waking up at 5:30 AM for three months. Throughout this journey, he meticulously tracked how these changes affected his work quality and quantity. The insights gleaned from this year-long project include counterintuitive strategies such as working more deliberately by slowing down, eliminating unimportant tasks, applying the rule of three, embracing imperfection, scheduling less time for significant tasks, using the 20-second rule to minimize distractions, and understanding productive procrastination. This eye-opening read is packed with over 25 actionable best practices to help you achieve more.
