I regularly give keynotes, seminars, and workshops at conferences and corporate events. In one to two hours, you’ll discover how your brain works and how to get more out of it. Topics I like to talk about include focus, reducing stress and absenteeism, the brain, and achieving goals.

I'm severely dyslexic and know from experience how hard studying can be. In fact I was the slowest kid in class. At the same time I had a tremendous learning hunger. My frustration turned into fascination and I started to dive deep into all the papers to optimise my brain. I eventually developed my own system and this was very effective: for my study cognitive neuro-psychology it stated that you need at least 40 hours a week. I could now do it in 8. It didn't take long before my fellow students asked me what pills I took.In this book I explain the system to boost your study.

On any given day we are more than 200 times interrupted. The effect of our fragmented life is that we get less things done, find it harder to connect and experience more stress. In Focus ON/OFF you will discover how you can rewire your brain to be more resilient against distraction. This makes it easier to be productive, to connect to others and ultimately lead to a more fulfilling life.

Imagine a world where the vast majority of people wake up every day feeling inspired and fulfilled at the end of the day. My team and I believe in this bright future and our ability to build it together.Get tools and resources to get a grip on focus at focusacademy.com.

After reading many scientific papers on how our brain works, I decided to write a book about it that gives you a comprehensive overview. In this book you will discover how you can absorb information faster (without losing comprehension) and retain it much longer. It's a manual to gain more from your brain.

Did you know that we read 30% slower on a screen then on paper? That's why Oscar de Bos and I developed FocusReader. This software guides your eyes during reading, as a result you absorb texts way faster. We developed it specially for PDF files. You can use our software for free at focusreader.com
