How high-performing people prioritize and maximize their time.

Overview

Steve Jobs said, Its really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time. When people ask you how you are, do you say busy instead of fine? Busy is a choice. We work in high-pressure environments, with many responsibilities, and we communicate faster, with more data than ever before. The problem is, when we are time-poor, attention-starved, under pressure, and trying to keep up, we risk not looking up, not seeing the bigger picture, not having perspective. To succeed today, we cant work in the same ways that we always have. We must be faster and more agile. Maximizing and prioritizing time are key to being successful. We need to reset how we use our time so we can create better quality attention and impact at work. Only by taking back control of our own time at work can we do better work and enjoy our work more.
