Summary

Many people are inordinately busy and, as a result, suffer distraction, pressure and stress.

Are you frazzled but still behind after working long hours? Fully 61% of working Americans report they don’t have enough time to do what they would like to do. To escape the frenzy, move from the busy buzz and create your own “distraction-free zone.” Forget about trying to meet everyone else’s expectations. Concentrate on what matters to you and develop a practical plan to achieve your goals.

People want to get their lives together.

  • “Create healthy boundaries” – Do you turn yourself inside out every time someone makes a request? Set firm limits...
