[H.M. Ada · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a great, short guide on improving your focus and time efficiency. As someone who works very long hours and is constantly balancing that with family, this is a subject near and dear to my heart - and this book was worth the read.

Many of these tips are common sense, but it helps being reminded of them. Other tips have links to various scheduling and time management tools I was unaware of. The author also knows what he's talking about. I especially agree with his conclusion that multi-tasking is not efficient; and the power of saying "no" to certain tasks sometimes is something I think of lot of us need to be reminded of.

I also like the fact that the book is short. In a word, it's focused!

[Hom Sack · Rating 5 out of 5]

A short yet practical book to get you keyed on what you need to do to stay on task. The fixed format for each tip lets you anticipate what to expect, and concise enough that you can apply the advice effectively. The author provides many personal examples of how helpful the tips are. However, not all the tips may match your style. But try them all anyway. You can then determine which ones are most useful to you.

This is a straightforward, short book with loads of useful tips on how to improve your focus. I liked the fact it didn’t have a lot of fluff but just got to the point and although several of the ideas are familiar it is useful to be reminded every so often so you can get back on track. I know I need to stick to one thing and try to curtail my butterfly mind… I also know I’ll return to this book. An easy and useful read.

São dicas rápidas (e algumas úteis) sobre focar mais em trabalhos e outras atividades. A praticidade delas é o grande ponto positivo do livro. No geral, para quem tem dificuldade em focar-se, vale a leitura.

Regularmente Bueno

Solo el 30% de lo que leí es lo que realmente andaba busacando, el 70% restante es información inecesaria. Lo bueno es que me tomó solo dos horas en leer el libro y subrayar lo más importante.

Muy práctico, claro y objetivo

Me gusta que habla sobre su experiencia y como aplicar cada uno de los consejos. Cada quien puede adaptar su propio plan de enfoque

Superb book

[Mark Rego · Rating 2 out of 5]

O livro praticamente resume ideias de outros livros por fazes, não acrescentando nada de novo, ideal para quem nunca leu ou lê poucos livros de auto-ajuda e organização de tempo!
