Read More About Peter Bregman and “18 Minutes”
Allen and Dr. Melody are joined by Peter Bregman to discuss his new book “In 18 MINUTES: Find Your Focus, Master Distraction and Get the Right Things Done”. Peter Bregman, one of Harvard Business Review’s most popular online columnists, offers an inertia intervention plan for achieving your priorities at work and in life.
By mixing first-person insights with unique case studies Bregman shows the best way to combat constant and distracting interruptions is to create productive distractions of one’s own. His approach allows us to safely navigate through the constant chatter of emails, text messages, phone calls, and endless meetings that prevent us from focusing our time on those things that are truly important to us in our work and in our lives.
