How to be a Time Master: Control Your Time...Control Your Life

by Ian Cooper

Are you a Time Lord or a Time Thief? What Do You Spend Time Doing? What Would You Like To Spend Your Time Doing?

Becoming a Time Lord is not just about gaining time in order to get more done; it is also about being able to slow down to do the things that you want to do in the way that you want to do them. Essentially it is about self-mastery. If you can master time – you can be a Time Lord!

Time traps work in two ways: they trap you into losing time; or they result in personal overload.

Topics covered:

Dividing your time Avoiding information overload Managing emails and telephone Brilliant meetings Making communication work Banish procrastination How not to get sidetracked Striking a balance How to say no Create a time control system Never lose things again Small talk costs time Travel downtime Are you a time thief? Making time for relationships Killing time The routine trap Know your body clock

من اروع كتب التنمية البَشرية لإدارة الوقت
غيَّر كثير من عاداتي
و ساعدني بشكل مذهل على تنظيم وقتي
أسلوب الكاتب مقنع جداً

Not a bad read. This would be a good guide for anyone new to the concept of time management, perhaps in an Operational or Service Management role, as well as Sales. Although, a lot of time management practices are simply glorified common sense, which is (unfortunately) very well highlighted in this book.

كتاب لطيف الصراحة, يتكلم بواقع أكتر وهدا الشي الأجمل فيه. أعجبني في تلخيصه لبعض الأفكار, قهرني في تفكيره بأنه يقدم شي مغاير لكل اللي قبله .. لكن بشكل عام مفيد

There are a few good tips in this book and the writing is all right. But there are also a lot of things in this book that just aren't relevant to my life at all. I don't think I'll read it again.

Nice book. I love the idea about being spontaneous. We hire time management tools to manage time. Not letting the tools/time managing us.

استفدت من الكتاب ده نصيحه الكاتب " لا تضيع وقتك فى تكمله كتاب لا يعجبك او يفيدك بحجه انك قرأت اكثر من نصفه " :)
