Summary

This is an authorised summary of the full-length audiobook of Busy.

If you want to take control of your career - and your life - make sure you're not too busy to read this book.

Today's world is one of too much: too much work to do, too much communication, too much competition, too much uncertainty and too much information. We are striving to keep up, but inevitably we're falling behind, leaving us with a nagging sense of failure that is hard to shake off.

In Busy, Tony Crabbe debunks the myth that satisfaction at work comes from getting everything done.

Instead, he demonstrates that what will enable you to thrive is regaining a sense of mastery over your life, focusing on making an impact, engaging with loved ones and creating the momentum necessary to make changes.

We all need this book

This is a great book to listen to in this era of noise and busy body. I like the fact that it’s a short book and highlights key points that can be easily adapted into my day to day. I will recommend this to anyone who want to master on what matters!
