Making Time Work For You Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have read over a dozen books on time management. This book clearly stands out. When I first read it I could not believe how well its insights and suggestions resonated with my feelings and experience. It's a shame that when so many worthless books are selling in big quantities this book has to be special ordered. The section on "time policy" alone is worth the price of the book. If I were to get one book on time management this would be it.

The Power of Less: The Fine Art of Limiting Yourself to the Essential...in Business and in Life Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love the Zen Habits blog and really connect with Leo's simple message of cutting the clutter and living a simpler life in order to do and achieve the things that are of real value, so I got a lot out of this book's simple reminders and encouragement.
I didn't like it in audio format, though, which I explain in my video review, so while the content deserves five stars, the robotic, slick narrator and the way the format of the book worked with being read aloud brought the star rating down.
One other minor quibble was that Leo mentioned "previous posts" and "later posts" in his book a lot. Some of the content was obviously written for a blog format and it wasn't edited vigorously enough to catch these mistakes.
Other than that, though, the content is exactly what I expected from reading Leo's blog and I enjoyed the book a lot. It's a good kick in the rear if you need help getting fired up to achieve your goals through simplicity.
