Summary of Peter Bregman's Four Seconds
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The first step to overcoming your knee-jerk reactions is to take a breath. It may be the hardest thing you do all day, but it will help you make the smartest choice in the moment.
#2 Meditation helps us resist our urges, which in turn helps us make better decisions and be more productive. It teaches us to resist the urge of counter-productive follow-through, which is when we do something we don't want to do.
#3 The hardest part of meditation is simply sitting still and focusing on your breathing. Once you get the hang of it, it becomes easier and more reliable to create an environment that supports your goals.
#4 The side effects of goal setting are many, and can include a narrow focus that neglects non-goal areas, a rise in unethical behavior, distorted risk preferences, corrosion of organizational culture, and reduced intrinsic motivation.
