TMN Interview: Leo Babauta Discusses His New Book “Focus”

(If you have trouble with the video, you can watch it directly here.)

Leo Babauta is the author of the website Zen Habits.  He has authored several books including Zen To Done and The Power of Less.

Leo was kind enough to sit down and discuss his new book, Focus.

Focus: Finding Simplicity in the Age of Distraction

Focus is about eliminating distractions and getting done what is most important to you.

In the book, Leo discusses many techniques and strategies to focus on your work while cutting down on the “noise” of everyday life.

The free version is 27 chapters of great material to help you find simplicity in the age of distractions.

The paid version also includes:

  • 8 additional chapters
  • 5 videos from Leo
  • Audio interviews with experts such as Seth Godin, David Allen, and more
  • 3 quickstart PDF guides

Focus is available at focusmanifesto.com.

A-List Blogging Bootcamp

As mentioned during the interview, Leo also teaches the A-List Blogging Bootcamp.

The latest course starts today.

It is a six week course, entitled “How to Write Like an A-list Blogger.”  The first week is FREE.

So, whether you are just starting out or are trying to take your blogging to the next level… check out the course here.

Note: Special thanks to readers @havanatweets and @easycraat for their questions submitted for the interview.

  1. Hey Craig,

    Great interview with Leo. Always been a fan of his writing and simple approach to organization and time management. I like that you talked about both how this applies to individuals as well as in a corporate setting. I read Zen To Done and put many of the strategies into practice. I look forward to reading Focus as well!

    1. @philmontero Thanks Phil! Appreciate it! And thanks for the tips for the recording!

  2. I have really like Zen Habits and must say that has really raised my expectations from Leo. Really looking forward to his new book. Interestingly his books relate so much to our organiation mission and vision that almost all of my colleagues have read it.

  3. Craig-

    Nice interview. Love the advice regarding “limiting the stream” – very useful.

    1. @DennisCharles Thanks Dennis!
      Yes, seems these days if you don’t limit your input stream you will be overwhelmed by email, Twitter, Facebook, etc.

  4. Thank you for sharing this wonderful data with us. Very valuable article. Really add value the way you described everything in this article. Keep up the good work
