We often find ourselves filling every waking moment with activity, thinking that this is the only way to get ahead. But is this really the case?

We are all living in an epidemic of urgency and busyness. Unless we are flat out and working ridiculous hours, we are judged, and we often judge ourselves as lazy or unproductive.

How many of your meetings are 60 minutes or more? By choosing to do 25-minute meetings, you will free up a large chunk of time to get your day-to-day work done.

Imagine if you had a whole extra day per week available to you, what would you decide to do with it? 

The morning, and our first two hours in particular, is our most productive time and should be protected and utilised, not squandered.

Many of us are time-poor, overwhelmed and on the verge of ‘death by meetings’. But introducing 25-minute meetings at your work is easier than you think.
