This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Nobody wakes up thinking, "Today, I'll fill my day with back-to-back meetings!" Or, "I'll spend hours scrolling through social media!" Yet that's exactly what we often end up doing. Why?
In a world where information constantly refreshes and the workday feels like a race to react to other people's priorities, it's easy to fall into a state of constant distraction and busyness. But what if this frantic pace wasn't inevitable? What if you could step off the hamster wheel and take control of your time and attention? That's the premise behind Make Time.
Written by Jake and John, creators of Google Ventures' famous "design sprint," this book distills years of experience and experimentation into a four-step daily framework that anyone can use to design their day. Building on their success working with tech companies like Gmail and YouTube, they share practical techniques to optimize your energy, focus, and time—without relying on cookie-cutter productivity hacks.
Make Time isn't about productivity for the sake of productivity, nor is it about checking off more to-do lists. It doesn't ask you to throw out your smartphone or ditch social media entirely. Instead, it offers customizable tips and strategies that can be tailored to your personal habits and lifestyle, helping you make small but powerful shifts in your environment.
If you've ever wished for more hours in the day, Make Time is your guide to stop reacting to external demands and start making intentional time for the things that truly matter. It's about freeing yourself from constant busyness and distraction, so you can prioritize what brings you joy, fulfillment, and progress.
