Summary of Tony Crabbe's Busy

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Sample Book Insights:

#1 The strategies in this book will not solve the underlying problem, but they should help you create enough space and time to read, digest, and apply them. They will help you do less, do things quicker, or feel more in control.

#2 The word because has a magic that makes people believe there is a good reason for what you are asking them to do. It is important to use this word when asking for things, as it will make your request seem more reasonable.

#3 The brain needs its downtime. Be deliberate and intentional when you check in on mail and messages. Set specific times aside to do it in a focused way, rather than constantly grazing.

#4 The internet and email notifiers are among the biggest culprits for gratuitous task-switching. When we take a peek at new messages, we distract ourselves and reduce our efficiency.
