Top 5 Highlights from this Interview
* Multitasking isn't always undesirable or ineffective, once you hack the myth.
* Being less stimulated allows time to rest, wonder, and think more strategically about what you want to create.
* Your ability to control your attention is directly related to the quality of your life (and accomplishments...)
* When you expect your colleagues to be focused 100% of the time, you can expect new ideas 0% of the time.
* Email isn't evil in itself, you just have to regain control of it. #emailsprints
