Even brief mental blocks created by shifting between tasks can cost as much as 40 percent of someones productive time.

How much of your time do you spend unfocused? How much of your time can you afford to spend unfocused?

How much more could you achieve, do, earn? How much time could you have left to enjoy life?

Take a moment to let that sink in.

So you procrastinate even more, or worsegive up completely and stay stuck.

Finding that perfect way to focus can be frustrating and time consuming. It took me a good few years to figure out what worked for me, and I am still tweaking my system as I go.

We are all different and our needs change as we go through life. And our approach to make our minds work should also adapt to our needs. But more often than not, this is not the case.

How do I know?

Im a life-long learner, a teacher/trainer, doctor, and author/blogger with passion for discovering how our minds and human behaviour work.

I have researched the best strategies, supported by scientific evidence, and tried every single one of them. These strategies helped me to go from being a very average, and at times struggling, student, to aceing exams, mastering two foreign languages and gaining a few more qualifications, and successfully juggling multiple jobs and other commitments simultaneously.

I have shared my ideas and this very system with many people around the world through my online courses, Quora answers, blog posts, and personal advice, showing strategies that actually made a difference to people's productivity and lives.

I sifted through hundreds of books, articles, and sometimes incredibly boring scientific papers on the subjects of focus, concentration, productivity, habits, and other brain powers and distilled whats out there into an easy-to-read, simple-to-follow system that can be personalised. No-nonsense, no inspirational fluff, and no snake-oil.

By following this system, I developed an ability to sit down and snap into focus, getting on with my tasks without fuss, completing them faster and with fewer errors, and having more time to enjoy life.

If you follow my system, you will be able to maximise your productivity, get your work done on time, achieve more, and reach success faster. As a result, youll spend less time at your desk or computer, and youll have evenings, weekends, and holidays to yourself. Youll have more time for your family and friends, and simply to enjoy your life and be happy.
