Simplify Your Life
Multi-tasking. Everybody's doing it. But is today's super-charged lifestyle ultimately more productive? Dr. Edward Hallowell believes e-mail, PDAs, cell phones and instant messaging can actually slow productivity and lead to culturally-induced attention deficit disorder, both in adults and children. Dr. Hallowell, author of the best-seller "CrazyBusy," offers advice on how to manage work and make time for what's really important.
