Eat That Frog!: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time by Brian Tracy
3.0
some pretty good tips! a little outdated (in terms of some of the examples and the structure of working life and just in general opinions ppl have on what their life should look like) (and the technology chapter lol. oh brian if only emails and blackberry's were the worst of it...U_U sigh)
but yea i did like the tips, nice and actionable. also his writing is surprisingly kind and not weirdly condescending like a lot of self-help tends to be. the way he keeps emphasizing that everything people do is learnable/achievable no matter where u are right now is very reassuring ;_; (cough i have terrible problems w procrastination) (although the line "if you aren't getting better, you're getting worse" really came in and grabbed me by the throat. i guess i needed that?)
i dont really like the whole 'successful people vs unsuccessful people' division (i think more modern books have really moved past it since all the discussions of how definitions of success vary, is success the only goal in life etc etc)
