      Little Effort, Big Rewards - 50minutes

      Problem: how can we work quicker and more efficiently to free up time and energy to spend on other projects?

      Uses: today more than ever, we never seem to have enough time. There is no doubt about it: learning to increase your productivity by accomplishing more without tiring yourself out is the best way to simplify your life and increase your wellbeing.

      Professional uses: time management, project management, work organisation.

      FAQs:

      Is the principle of least effort a recognised theory?

      How can I establish an effective, motivating list of tasks?

      How can I stay productive when faced with constant obstacles (unforeseen problems, interruptions, etc.)?

      How can I focus on results?

      Are naps recommended to increase your concentration and productivity?

This can seriously damage our wellbeing by pushing us to work more – an ineffective solution which often leads to stress-related health problems. Another, much more viable possibility is increasing your energy and productivity to accomplish more in less time.

      Working better without working harder is not anything new. Becoming an intelligent lazy person is a case of knowing where to invest your efforts, gather your energy and carry out a task effectively. It means choosing simplicity to avoid overwork, and to accomplish your tasks without wearing yourself out professionally.

      Doing more with less effort allows you to significantly influence your
