About this listen

The revolutionary productivity system trusted by more than 25,000 professionals. Get more done and get your life back.

Many professionals work as many as 70 hours a week, leaving little time for rest, exercise, family, and friends. Work is invading their personal life. The common understanding of productivity has failed these professionals.

Most think productivity is just about getting more done at a faster speed. But it's not. Productivity is about getting the right things done.

New York Times best-selling author Michael Hyatt has created a total productivity system that's much more than endless box checking. Proven by more than 25,000 professionals, this system helps overwhelmed leaders achieve what matters most so they can succeed at both work and life.

In his latest audiobook, Free to Focus, you'll discover how to:

  • Redefine your work so it works for you
  • Filter your tasks and commitments
  • Cut out the nonessentials
  • Eliminate interruptions and distractions
  • Set boundaries that protect your focus and drive results
  • Leverage your time and energy for maximum productivity
  • Build momentum for a lifetime of success

In Free to Focus, you'll learn the three-step system to achieve more while doing less.

What Audible Listeners are saying about Free to Focus

Editorial reviews

We hear a lot about the “attention economy,” with sundry social networks and other cultural phenomena constantly vying for a share of our time. Goal-setting and productivity expert Michael Hyatt is here to tell you we’re actually in the midst of a “distraction economy,” ruled by “the tyranny of the urgent.” In this fast-paced listen, he helps you develop techniques to determine what really matters and is worthy of your attention and effort. Perhaps the best part about Free to Focus: listening to it feels a lot like a “brain-pick” advice session over coffee with an empathetic, relatable, and very knowledgeable friend.
Courtney R., Audible Editor

A practical guide to feel free

I have read many books on productivity. Michael Hyatt nailed down with this book. Don't need to expend more time looking for tips and tricks in Apps, tools, and books. He gave me a framework to focus on the right things and feel free. If you are looking for tools, he gives you tools, if you are looking for methodology, he gives you one. This is a practical guide for people seeking freedom to do more of what you love. He combines foundational principles and tools in this masterpiece. Period. BTW, he narrates the book with emotions and relevance to key concepts. Thanks, Michael and team.

So much to think about!

This book was a breath of fresh air and hope that I can master my tasks and don’t have to kill myself to do it. The tools are great and simple to use, which makes it even better. Likely one I’ll listen to again a few times to refresh on!

Making productivity simple

This book is an excellent collation of years of Michael Hyatt’s personal research and training under the guidance of greats like David Allen, Peter Drucker, Tim Ferriss, Cal Newport and many others. If you don’t have the time to read all the other books out there on productivity, then just read and implement this one. It will change your life as it is changing mine.

A lot of good stuff in it.

This book is full of valuable content and I really loved most of it. Having said that, there are many superfluous chapters and, I dare say, unnecessary advice and guidelines. I also wish the author had found the strength to make it less commercial.
I will rate it 5 stars nevertheless.

Clear, concise and crisp

This could be the single most important book to clear up your mind!
If you are on the fence about this title and you are interested in finding a great way to get a handle on your currently cluttered life, not just work, but the entire picture, then you need to listen to this and follow his steps.
I am excited so far and can't wait to see how things progress from here for me.

Nothing new, but well organized by

I did not find any new ideas here, but it was well-organized and interesting nonetheless. Most the ideas were versions of Covey’s “Seven Habits of Successful People” with additional tips regarding delegating, which, again, I’ve read elsewhere.
