The Power of Full Engagement - Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz

By Josh Kaufman

Most businesspeople focus on managing time, which is misleading: true effectiveness is more about managing and investing your energy, and that starts by paying close attention to your body. The Power of Full Engagement describes how to optimize your daily energy levels by improving your daily habits and routines.

Central to The Power of Full Engagement is the idea of rest and recovery. Just like a high-performing athlete, people who think, plan, and create for a living have a need to rest after periods of intense exertion. By planning for these rest and recovery cycles, you can actually get more done in less time without feeling drained or overly stressed.

The Power of Full Engagement also covers maintaining high energy levels via diet and exercise – two overlooked areas of life that have a major impact on how you feel each day. If you want to keep yourself in “fighting shape” in order to do your best work, read this book.
