摘要
Sometimes, no matter how busy we are or how hard we work, when we look back on our day, it can seem like we didn’t really achieve very much. Why is this and what can we do to make more effective use of our time? Could the answer be simply tuning into our bodies’ and minds’ natural rhythms – more specifically the ultradian rhythm, the 90-minute cycles of attention and alertness that oscillate throughout the day?
In this episode we’re joined by executive coach and author Dr Christian Poensgen, to talk about his latest book, Ultraproductive – The 90-Minute Method for More Focus, Better Sleep and Less Stress.
He talks about the many factors within modern life that lead us to struggle to carry out our daily tasks, why concentrating on quality rather than quantity of focus, sleep, and relaxation is essential for our productivity, and shares some psychological tips that can help us all start making more effective use of our time.
