Today’s world is all about speed and gathering superficial information. How does that affect our ability to comprehend, focus, and manage our work? What are the Internet and technology doing to our brains? As we spend more time on technology-related tasks and less time exposed to people, we drift away from fundamental social skills. Our brain circuits become weaker with less face-to-face contact, leading to social awkwardness, an inability to focus, isolation, and depression. Learn vital principles, tools, and practices for eliminating information overwhelm and bringing focus and energy back into your life.

You will learn to:

  • Effectively deal with too much information; including e-mail and the addiction to communications devices.
  • Significantly reduce distractions and interruptions—say NO and close the door.
  • Naturally and easily prioritize so that you are working on what is most important at work and in life.
