I was curious to read this book to know a little a bit more about focus. I already use GTD as my productivity system and it's clear that some sections are a GTD derivative with a different name.
I was a little bit annoyed that I had to go to the author's website to take the initial assessment, leave my e-mail and then I started receiving all these promotional e-mails to buy his planner. That threw me off a little bit.
But the message in the book is not unlike any other good productivity system: eliminate non essentials, group similar tasks for efficiency, eliminate distractions and use time blocking to focus.
4.5 stars
A quick, easy read packed with practical time management advice. My favorite time management book thus far. I???ve already handed it off to someone else who now wants to read it and it made it onto my buy-extra-copies-to-give-away list.
The only reason I took off half a star was because you have to download the worksheets online and to do so, you have to provide your name, email address, phone number, number of employees and annual income / revenue. I understand that authors want to capture leads, but having to answer excessively invasive questions to download worksheets that could have been printed in the book was a big turnoff for me.
