Strategies for Handling Your Fast-Paced Life","description":"Look at what's happened to the usual how-are-you exchange. It used to go like this: \"How are you?\" \"Fine.\" Now it often goes like this: \"How are you?\" \"Busy.\" Or \"Too busy.\" Or simply \"Crazy.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWithout intending for it to happen or knowing how, when, or why it got started, many people now find that they live in a rush they never wanted. If you feel busier than you've ever been and wonder how this happened and how you can keep up the pace much longer, you are hardly alone. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCrazy? Maybe not. Dysfunctional? Yes, indeed. We all have more to do than ever before -- and less time to do it. In this highly listenable audiobook, the foremost expert on ADD, Ned Hallowell, explores the society-wide phenomenon of culturally induced ADD. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBeing busy may very well keep you from doing what matters most, or it may lead you to do things you deem unwise (like getting angry, for example). Being busy is a problem for almost all of us. This audiobook is about both the opportunity and the problem -- where this peculiar life comes from and how to turn it to your advantage. Offering solutions to this difficult, complex problem that might work for you, most importantly, \u003ci\u003eCrazybusy\u003c\/i\u003e may prompt you to create solutions of your own.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdward M.
