This book has actionable advice presented in an approachable and easily understandable manner. I deeply appreciate the author acknowledging her ADHD and how these steps help her. Seeing someone that looks like me, has similar challenges, but is still succeeding is deeply encouraging. I've flagged multiple pages for future reference and have used the "importance by urgency" and "impact by intensity" matrices to prioritize all of my personal and professional projects.

Great book on how to manage time❤️
I love how this book has different examples of poor time management and how they each can be improved. Although some things are known to us, it helps to read confirmation and ways you can improve your issue. I highly recommend this book.

Phoebe Gavin starts out by reminding us that we are not “stupid, broken, or undisciplined” and yet our brains can be trained to grow the skills necessary to become more efficient, productive, and calm.
The short relatable stories throughout the chapters help outline scenarios we understand but want to overcome. There are journal exercises to guide us through our own specific situations. The strategies for each subset of time management are laid out distinctly.
This clarity of writing is wonderful and in a tone of friendly professionalism. The book layout is appreciated – the font is not too tiny and jammed, the book is not too long, the headings a clear guide of what to expect (and easy for searching back to an idea you want to revisit).
If you have a Growth Mindset towards becoming a Time Master in your life, this may be the book for you!
