Autopilot by Andrew Smart [Paperback]

Unplug and Recharge: Why Doing Nothing is the Secret to Peak Performance with Autopilot

In today's fast-paced world, the pressure to be constantly "on" is immense. We multitask, hustle, and strive for efficiency, believing that busyness equates to productivity. But what if the key to unlocking our full potential lies in doing the opposite?

Andrew Smart's thought-provoking book, Autopilot, challenges the ingrained cultural norm of busyness. Backed by cutting-edge neuroscience research, Smart argues that constantly filling our lives with activity actually hinders our brain function.

Autopilot: A Scientific Case for Embracing Idleness

Autopilot dismantles the myth of multitasking and the glorification of the "hustle." Through witty and informative prose, Smart reveals the science behind why our brains thrive during periods of rest and relaxation. He explains how our brains consolidate information, spark creativity, and enhance problem-solving abilities when we allow them to enter a state of "autopilot."
