We are all overwhelmed with technological input in our daily lives – whether it is our mobile phone ringing, our Blackberry bleeping or emails that pour in endlessly – we are all becoming hyperstimulated and unable to switch on (concentrate) or switch off (relax) because we’re all on permanent standby. As a result, we have lost the art of concentrating properly. Luckily, this cutting edge personal development book is here to help readers navigate their way through the deluge and provides the tools we need to learn how to concentrate and focus. Rooted in scientific fact and research, it includes a detailed look at how your brain works, what inhibits brain function and concentration and covers things such as lack of down-time, distraction, poor lifestyle habits and stress. Featuring techniques and exercises to help improve concentration, it is guaranteed to help us all improve the way we work and the way we live our lives.

Enhance focus, reduce stress and achieve more

The Art of Concentration

Burnout is now recognised as a real problem. Our 24/7 lifestyles promote the sense that we have to have-it-all and do-it-all immediately, encouraging behavior that lead to burnout. The warning signs are easy to miss once we get into long-term patterns of stress and adapt to these constant, over-elevated levels of stress hormones. It begins to feel 'normal' to be functioning like this, strung out, unable to concentrate, wired, constantly exhausted - and then it takes time, sometimes months and years to re-set our internal stress thermostat to normal. In From Burnout to Balance, Harriet Griffey helps readers to reclaim their life by recognising their own signs of stress, managing these and avoiding their escalation through positive lifestyle changes, and ensuring basic self-care measures every day - adequate sleep, regular nutritious meals, exercise and relaxation - to keep body and mind resilient, all helps. Saying no to excessive demands on our time, asking for help when it's needed, creating a support system and relinquishing perfection, are all the attitudes of confident people who know that before you put on someone else's oxygen mask, you must first fit your own.

'Confidence is like a muscle: the more you use it, the stronger it gets' Anon In today's virtual, social networking world, there is a downside: online rather than personal interaction is creating a climate of social awkwardness and a lack of confidence, particularly among young people. If we don't demonstrate our abilities or show our unique qualities, it's difficult to be confident about them. We need to practice to improve our confidence and we need to know how. No one is 100 per cent confident all the time. Most of us feel confident about some things, but not others, which provides a place to start and something on which to build as we learn to be confident. And once we realize that we can address this, we can learn ways to manage new situations or things we fear with newly acquired confidence skills. I Want to be Confident takes a look at the underpinning psychology of confidence, what it is, and how to learn it when it doesn't come naturally. Harriet Griffey identifies what it takes to improve confidence so that we can embrace our social and working lives, and our personal and professional relationships more positively, and in a way that authentically reflects who we are and what we want to achieve.
