the long version

How can we be most effective and productive in a world that moves too fast and demands so much of us? In [this book], Peter Bregman shows that the answer is to pause for as few as four seconds--the length of a deep breath--to replace bad habits and reactions with more productive behaviors ... Bregman reveals some of our most common counter-productive tendencies and describes counter-intuitive strategies for acting more intentionally, including: why setting goals can actually harm your performance, how to use strategic disengagement to recover focus and willpower, why listening--not arguing--is the best strategy for changing someone's mind, how taking responsibility for someone else's failure can actually help you succeed. "Las cosas que mas queremos -paz mental, relaciones satisfactorias, desempenarse bien en el trabajo- son sorprendentemente faciles de realizar. Pero frecuentemente nuestros mejores esfuerzos para alcanzarlos se construyen sobre habitos destructivos que nos perjudican. En cuatro segundos, Peter Bregman nos muestra como reemplazar los patrones negativos y nos impulsa con energia para dar comportamientos productivos. Para mejorar nuestro mundo que va a un ritmo rapido solo se necesita hacer una pausa por tan solo cuatro segundos lo que se toma una respiracion profunda- permitiendo tomar decisiones intencionales y tacticas que conducen a mejores resultados,"--Amazon.com.
