Nothing unique to offer, same stuff wrapped in different packet

One extra star just because of the writing style of author
Summarizing a chapter at the end in a nutshell is a good idea for any self help book

[Justin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Either a solid and good introduction to the key aspects of Productivity that are covered in more depth in other titles or else a very good refresher for those that know a lot of this type of material or have read said book that cover aspects in more depth.
