The latest research is clear: the state of
our attention determines the state of our lives. So how do we harness our
attention to focus deeper, get distracted less, and even become more creative?

to focus is the key to productivity, creativity, and living a meaningful life.

hope to meet”. He is the international bestselling author of Hyperfocus and The
Productivity Project, which have been published in sixteen languages. Chris
works with organisations around the globe on how they can become more
productive without hating the process.
To date, Chris has written hundreds of
articles on the subject of productivity, and has garnered coverage in media as
diverse as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, New York magazine, The
Huffington Post, Harvard Business Review, TED, Fortune, Fast Company, and

*Do plants scream when hurt?*
