From the Back Cover
How many times have you been distracted today from what you actually wanted to do? We live in a world of constant connectivity. Distractions lurk around every corner. Our endless to-do lists and packed schedules are a relentless reflection of what's going on in our minds: we are constantly in overdrive, and our focus is completely lost. No wonder stress and burnout rates are at an all-time high. Even though most of us know what we need to do in order to stay resilient and healthy, our overstimulated brains seem unable to handle all that knowledge, let alone put it into practice.
Ten years after her bestseller Better Minds, Elke Geraerts presents a book tailored to a generation without attention. She combines powerful insights with practical tools that have an immediate impact on how you work and live. Her goal is to ensure that you can truly focus on what is important. This means you need razor-sharp focus when necessary, but you also need to master the art of unfocusing. Her promise? You will work more efficiently, boost your creativity, and have more time for meaningful connections.
Are you ready for this mental revolution?

Paperback. Condition: New. "You can be as smart as Einstein, but if you fail to direct your attention to what is important, then what good is that high IQ? People who are focused are more alert, experience less stress, and worry less. Unfortunately, focus has become a rare commodity: our attention span has dramatically decreased over the past decades." - Elke GeraertsHow many times have you been distracted today from what you actually wanted to do? We live in a world of constant connectivity, where distraction lurks around every corner. Our endless to-do lists and packed schedules are a merciless reflection of what's going on in our minds: we are constantly in overdrive, and our focus is completely lost. No wonder stress and burnout rates are at an all-time high. Despite the fact that we now know more than ever what we need to remain resilient and healthy, our overstimulated brain seems unable to handle all that knowledge, let alone put it into practice. Ten years after her bestseller Better Minds, Elke Geraerts presents a book tailored to a generation without attention. She combines powerful insights with practical tools that can be implemented immediately. Her goal? Sharpening our focus again. Not only by making us work more efficiently and attentively but also - and especially - by teaching us to deliberately unfocus. Are you ready for a mental revolution?
