Recommendation

In today’s business environment, growing demands for efficiency and performance, coupled with technology that makes you contactable 24/7, more and more people are finding themselves exhausted and overrun. Rasmus Hougaard, Jacqueline Carter and Gillian Coutts of The Potential Project offer five simple but effective “mantras” to help you be more mindful in your work life and your personal life. The authors clearly explain how to focus on the present, declutter, avoid “action addiction” and meaningless “busyness,” and behave more compassionately. getAbstract recommends this article to business leaders and everyone feeling stressed from the demands of modern life.

Take-Aways

  • To stay focused in today’s fast-paced business world, practice five “mantras” in your daily life: First, stay in the present moment.
  • Second, don’t allow “clutter” to distract you from what’s important.
  • Third, steer clear of “action addiction” – the urge to do many tasks without considering whether  they are a good use of your time.
