About the Course

•    Why do we sometimes feel like we’re working harder but falling further behind?

•    Is it possible to achieve what we want personally and professionally without working more hours?

•    Can increased productivity really go hand-in-hand with lower stress levels?

The headwinds we face in life today are formidable. Emails and instant messages come in at a relentless pace. Calendars fill up. Distractions abound. We are consistently busy, but we lack the sense that we are focused on the right things. We seldom celebrate real achievement. Home life suffers, at the mercy of the demands of our professional lives, and vice versa.
