The Free-Time Formula: Finding Happiness, Focus, and Productivity No Matter How Busy You Are Hardcover -

From the rear cover

How many hours have you worked this week? When you're working, do you constantly feel stressed, rushed, and under pressure? Has it reached the point where you delay restroom visits because three minutes away from your desk will throw everything off-schedule? You, my friend, are overworked--and you're not alone. We are all being asked to do more and more with less and less, and it's all so vitally important and has to be done ASAP. Lacking a magic wand, we work at a furious pace for hours on end, only to collapse into bed so we can wake up and do it all again tomorrow. There is always more to be done, but the days aren't getting any longer; something's got to give, but don't let it be your sanity.

The Free-Time Formula is your lifeline back to happiness, focus, and true productivity. Action-packed and to-the-point, this sanity-saving guide will help you reclaim your days as you discover just how much power you have. Prioritizing is key, but deprioritizing is even more critical--and this book gives you a clear and workable framework for becoming the focused, efficient achiever you've been trying to be for so long. You'll begin with a time assessment that gauges your current levels of stress, strategies, and output, then you'll work step-by-step toward a new daily routine that will reawaken your spirit as you start to get it all done--with time left over!

• Gain an extra hour of free time--every day--to read, exercise, or spend time with friends and family
• Double your productivity without feeling overworked or overwhelmed
• Ask the right questions, clarify what matters, and cut out the nonsense to reclaim your day
• Predict and prevent distractions in order to stay on track with the important stuff
• Formulate a seven-day action plan for revamping your calendar and revitalizing your life!

Productivity is not about cramming more "stuff" and your current goals, and building the habit of saying "no" when you want to. It's about never again missing a deadline or being late for a meeting, but also attending every single one of your kid's recitals. It's about climbing the ladder while building a life, and feeling absolutely a-okay about leaving your phone in the hotel room on vacation. Life is what happens outside of work, and The Free-Time Formula helps you reformulate your day to enjoy more of it.
