The Productivity Project: Accomplishing More by Managing Your Time, Attention, and Energy
A fresh, personal, and entertaining exploration of a topic that concerns all of us: how to be more productive at work and in every facet of our lives.  Chris Bailey turned down lucrative job offers to pursue a lifelong dream€"to spend a year performing a deep dive experiment into the pursuit of productivity, a subject he had been enamored with since he was a teenager. After obtaining his business degree, he created a blog to chronicle a year-long series of productivity experiments he conducted on himself, where he also continued his research and interviews with some of the world€s foremost experts, from Charles Duhigg to David Allen. Among the experiments that he tackled: Bailey went several weeks with getting by on little to no sleep; he cut out caffeine and sugar; he lived in total isolation for 10 days; he used his smartphone for just an hour a day for three months; he gained ten pounds of muscle mass; he stretched his work week to 90 hours; a late riser, he got up at 5:30 every morning for three months€"all the while monitoring the impact of his experiments on the quality and quantity of his work.  The Productivity Project€"and the lessons Chris learned€"are the result of that year-long journey. Among the counterintuitive insights Chris Bailey will teach you: ·        slowing down to work more deliberately; ·        shrinking or eliminating the unimportant; ·        the rule of three; ·        striving for imperfection; ·        scheduling less time for important tasks; ·        the 20 second rule to distract yourself from the inevitable distractions; ·        and the concept of productive procrastination. In an eye-opening and thoroughly engaging read, Bailey offers a treasure trove of insights and over 25 best practices that will help you accomplish more.
