This book is very short but it offers a lot of help in organizing your time. Managing time is difficult for so many people but this book helps to explain not only how to manage it but also what you're doing wrong in the first place. It helps you to determine what your goal is and how best to achieve it.
While the book is an easy read, there were several things that made me say "what??" to myself. For instance, the author speaks about how driving to work or school is a waste of time. For many people, this isn't an option. I myself live in the suburbs where we don't have trains or buses so driving yourself is the only/quickest option to getting somewhere. I feel like the author could have explained this particular train of thought a bit better to fit into the average reader's lifestyle.
Overall, the book does provide some good information on how to prioritize your time and manage your activities and responsibilities.

Is there not enough time in the day for everything you need to do? Are you a hard-core procrastinator? This book might just help.
Decide which tasks are important (do those first) and leave the rest for later. Make a schedule, and stick to it like glue. If you really can't do it all, learn how to delegate some of the tasks to others. Set personal goals, and, if necessary, break them up into smaller, more manageable pieces. Stay off the internet, except for certain, specific times of the day. What is your best time of day? Are you a morning person or a night owl? Learn how to manage change, because you can't stop it.
This book is short (less than 100 pages) and very easy to read. For most people, the tips in this book are just common knowledge. Even if a person can do only a few of these tips, it will help greatly. This is very much worth reading.
