there’s a lot of valuable info and i like how they’ve added a quick start guide at the end to help users to understand how they can get the best out of the book.
Some things are really obvious, but then some things need to be said in a certain way that kicks you in the rear and gets you started with what you need to do. And this is that book! I through this pretty quickly because the writing style was so approachable and they were really fun Diagrams and anecdotes, but the book didn’t seem to be preaching in any sort of way like other productivity books tend to do. The book is also broken down in multiple sections with small pieces of advice per section, which allows you to jump around to the particular item that you may want to work on. Every single piece of advice was actionable with steps for you to take to undergo the suggestion that the authors were making, and I absolutely took much of the suggestions too hard, and to mind. I highly recommend this book, so much so, that I do not anticipate reading another self-help or productivity book for the rest of the year.
True story: this is the first “time management” sort of book that has made me feel encouraged, as if making changes were possible - even for me. I am excited to start trying out some of these tactics. I am a little wary of my own tendency to not actually DO the things I am excited about, but the way this book breaks things down into bite sized things to try, I feel like it might really work ... even for me.

An great read for anyone who, as the subtitle suggests, wants to focus on what matters every day. I for instance wanted to make time for activities for my own pleasure and genuine enjoyment and this book has given me several practical tips and techniques for making that happen. I definitely would recommend anyone to give it a try.
This work offered great reminders about things you know in your head, but don’t practice in your heart. I’m looking forward to sharing some of the procedures with students who lead busy lives and struggle to use their time appropriately to juggle school, home, and extracurricular activities.
Don't let the fact that it took me four months to finish this book dissuade you from reading it. I almost always leave nonfiction on the back burner while I am reading an engrossing fiction novel.
This book was excellent. The authors share enough of their personal lives to keep the tips from being stale. They are experts on the very things that distract us the most, because they created them! Having worked for Google and Youtube, they understand the trappings of the internet and that it was engineered to be addicting. As a result, their suggestions are practical and recognize that you are going to at least occasionally get sucked in.
I actually want to buy this book because there was just so much material, I feel like I need to periodically revisit it.

This book speaks to exactly where I’m at in life right now. I’m getting everything done in a day but not exactly enjoying it. This book gives practical strategies for carving out time for yourself, how to stay energized through your workday and ultimately end up with a better head space by the end of the day.
I took this book out of the library but will go and purchase my own copy. Definitely a book to read again and again as well as highlight strategies and dog-ear pages.
