Free to Focus: A Total Productivity System to Achieve More by Doing Less
Everyone gets 168 hours a week, but it never feels like enough,
does it? Work gobbles up the lion's share--many professionals are
working as much as 70 hours a week--leaving less and less for rest,
exercise, family, and friends. You know, all those things that make
life great.
Most people think productivity is about finding or saving time. But
it's not. It's about making our time work for us. Just imagine
having free time again. It's not a pipe dream.
In Free to Focus, New York Times bestselling author
Michael Hyatt reveals to readers nine proven ways to win at work so
they are finally free to succeed at the rest of life--their health,
relationships, hobbies, and more. He helps readers redefine their
goals, evaluate what's working, cut out the nonessentials, focus on
the most important tasks, manage their time and energy, and build
momentum for a lifetime of success.
