Content
How to Get More Done in a World Full of Distractions? In recent years, the number of stimuli we are exposed to has increased fivefold. As a result, we are more and more interrupted in our tasks. The more interruptions, the lower our productivity, and the less time we have for complex tasks such as writing a thesis or managing multiple assignments. As a result, we often feel (too) busy and experience more stress.
In the Focus ON/OFF training course, you will discover how the brain processes distractions, identify your concentration leaks, and learn techniques to optimize your focus. Focus Academy's experienced and enthusiastic trainers guide you in developing a personalized action plan with new habits for sustained focus and less stress.
This training starts with a number of tests so that you can experience where your largest concentration drains are. Then we look at how to reduce the impact of distractions of your surroundings and at the same time increase resilience.
Duration and time investment
The workshop takes 2.5 hours.
