Customer Reviews

Highly Recommended

The author does a very credible job of tackling today's most pervasive topic. I found myself reading chapters that initially thought I wouldn't be interested in. I would recommend this book for anyone who is after results.

A Truly Wonderful Book!

A truly wonderful book. Starting from where ever you are, this will help you to get to wherever you want to be. I looked around for a while before finding a book like this. It is a treasure.

What a Wonderful Book

CTD is just what the doctor ordered if you find yourself swamped at work. The author directly addresses such problems such as the pile up on your desk and your shelves, procrastination, how to separate the urgent and the important from the simply important or urgent. I especially liked the traces of humor thrown in here and there. If you are part of the rat race, and you feel like the rats are winning, this book might be for you.

This book will help you

If you have read some of the other popular books out there on getting things done, and found that they actually increase your work load instead ofto streamline it, you might want to give this book a try. In a very methodical, easy to follow approach the author lays out a plan for you to be more effective and efficient. Each chapter focuses on a specific component of being more productive and each is relatively easy to get through. Even before I finished this book, I was eager to put some of the suggestions into practice.

This is a great book!

I was looking forward to accomplishing some big things in my life and this book helped me enormously. It goes into great detail as to the philosophy, the mind-set, the action you need to undertake to get things done. The book is kind of long, but that's good, because you get to pick those portions that apply directly to your current situation. I would definitely recommend this book if you are seeking to achieve anything major in your career or for that matter your personal life and want some guidance, some good ideas, and a ready reference source.
