Just seven minutes of focus are sufficient to make a person more organized and effective, whether in professional or personal life. This is revealed by productivity expert, Forbes columnist, and best-selling, author John Brandonin the book Seven Minutes to Increase Your Productivity. The result of ten years of research on the subject, this release is a practical guide for those who wish to structure their routine and direct their attention to what truly matters, in order to achieve better results in less time.
Brandon presents a practical method to optimize time management, maximize focus, and gradually increase output, based on daily schedules. Among these strategies, the author suggests starting the morning with quick planning by writing down the three most important tasks of the day; reserving fixed times to check emails; adopting short breaks for rest every 90 minutes of intense work; and eliminating digital distractions, for example, by muting social media notifications during periods of concentration. By applying these simple habits, the expert demonstrates that it is possible to achieve beneficial effects without resorting to drastic changes.
Many people spend their day merely reacting to external demands. It is essential to take control of one's own time and set clear objectives. After all, effective productivity does not mean doing more tasks, but rather focusing on what truly delivers results.
