Stress-Free Productivity: A Personalised Toolkit to Become Your Most Efficient, Creative Self

Description

A simple guide for readers to harness their inner expert and learn what helps them innovate, produce, and flourish... without the burnout. Have you ever felt that you're too much of a perfectionist to be productive? Does the prepackaged advice from experts just not work? Then this is the book for you. There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all productivity plan. The tricks that work for your colleague may not work as well for you. Or perhaps they don't work at all. The fact is that everyone has their own productivity quirks to make them work efficiently and effectively. They just don't know how to crack them. In this innovative guide, Dr Alice Boyes will help you diagnose your unique productivity profile and give you the framework to formulate a powerhouse personalised system. Drawing on groundbreaking research, countless examples, and quizzes in every chapter, this book will help you be the most growth-oriented, most effective and efficient, and most creative and visionary version of yourself.
