Having a head full of things we need to do is one of the biggest distractions. Here’s a better way to parse tasks and get more done.
When we’re faced with only 15 minutes in between meetings, or waiting in line to get coffee or lunch, our natural inclination is to either answer email, look at social media, or text someone. These are not always the most productive uses of small slivers of time, according to several experts.
They say there is plenty you can accomplish in 15 minutes, if you do three things:

- Write your to-do list in a way that allows you take immediate action.
- Look at email and social media with a focus on moving forward.

The Creators Of HBO’s Westworld Talk AI, Sentience, And Our Surveillance State

As Game of Thrones marches into its final seasons, HBO is debuting this Sunday what it hopes—and is betting millions of dollars on—will be its new blockbuster series: Westworld, a thorough reimagining of Michael Crichton’s 1973 cult classic film about a Western theme park populated by lifelike robot hosts.
