Customer Reviews

It's a New Year

Somehow finishing this bookon New Year's Eve and doing a New Year Eve's review seems fitting. The book's big idea:proceed with clarity and focus and you will achieve more than you think you can.A book to help with those New Year's resolutions. As with other books in this outstanding series, each chapter is only a couple of pages long. Easy to digest and really understand. Some tips:always be asking ,in moving towards your objective, "what is the next action"; when you learn or see something new, make an effort to ask:"how can I use this to my benefit?"; ask questions of others to develop closer bonds.Some of the book is a little too Tony Robbins like and happy talk and thoughts creep in, but,for the money spent and the time devoted, a worthwhile investment.

The real deal

This is a terrific book that quickly cuts to the chase: There's no such thing as time management, only management. If you're looking for step-by-step, desktop "tools" and "tricks" for being more "productive," you'll be disappointed, but you'll discover something far more important-- how to focus on the right tasks in the first place. My only beef is that the author use more concrete examples to illustrate his points. While persuasive and understandable, some color would lend the advice more power.
