I f you're a regular reader of self help books / psychology books I'm not sure you'll find masses in here that's new. However, it's nicely pulled together and packaged, and the author's key message of making the first hour of the day a power hour of getting stuff done is a good one.

There are some interesting ideas in this book, although there's nothing in particular that I didn't already know. Naturally, each time someone writes about this subject, they put it in their style and with their particular spin on it. I enjoyed the way it was written, and there were some useful reminders. Basically, Adrienne explains the benefits of the power hour. That hour in the morning before everyone else is up when you can focus on something of particular importance to you, whether that's a run or a yoga session, writing journaling, reading etc.
I read this during the third UK lockdown in January 2021 and to be honest, that may be impacting my lack of engagement with this book. I read it hoping that it would stir up some motivation and get me going, but it's not had that effect. I'm sure other people may read it and get more positive and productive results. Unfortunately, the advice and guidance didn't suit me right now.
I understand that the author has a podcast too, so the book did encourage me to look these up and I may well dip into one or two of those to see if listening to others' experience has more impact.
The one interesting thing I did take away from the book, was that the author wrote it mostly during her power hour and so I congratulate her on her own motivation and staying power.

Ein sehr motivierendes Buch! Jeden Tag daraus zu lesen klingt einfach ist aber leider nicht so, manchmal gab es solche Kapiteln die mich einfach total umhauten, dass ich einfach mal für paar Tage aussetzen musste. Dieses Buch hat mir das Gefühl gegeben, alles in meinem Leben in Frage zu stellen…von bin ich gerade glücklich zu warum ist das Leben so kompliziert? Manchmal habe ich Antworten gekriegt, manchmal aber auch nicht aber das ist auch ok, ich muss nicht unbedingt wissen was das Leben für mich alles hat, ich werde einfach jeden Tag versuchen mich auf das Jetzt zu konzentrieren. Dank dieses Buch bin ich auf einer meiner Lieblingspodcasts gestoßen und habe jetzt ein Buch dass ich mit Erlaubnis der Autorin vollgekritzelt habe.
Good book about the power of time-management, but I hardly think this will be anything new to anyone who's seriously into self-improvement and lifestyle/wellbeing. It did have good tips and points, but I often felt it was more an abstract of 'This is what I did' without much of 'This is is how what I did might help you'.

"Power Hour" by Adrienne Herbert is an inspiring lifestyle guide focused on helping readers transform their lives by dedicating the first hour of their day to their goals. Herbert's writing is personal and engaging, making the book easy to relate to. The concept revolves around harnessing the early hours to create a productive morning routine that can significantly impact one's life.
Although at times it feels like the book is repeating similar points.
This book is ideal for anyone looking to optimize their daily habits and achieve personal success.
I recommend it to those eager to embrace a proactive start to their day.
