About this listen
This practical business book by an internationally acclaimed time management expert helps listeners understand why they're not finishing projects and what to do about it, including using Dr. Yager's unique F-I-N-I-S-H technique. It also goes beyond a "do this, not that" approach to help you develop a deeper insight into what you should be committing to in the first place!
The book is divided into three parts. Part 1, "Causes", begins with a provocative chapter entitled "The Epidemic of Unfinished Everything and Its Consequences." Chapter 2 explores 21 behaviors, beliefs, and bad habits that might be at the root of not finishing. The remaining chapters in this part explore specific causes of unfinished tasks including "Having Too Much to Do at Once", "Dealing with Procrastination", and "Having an Unrealistic or No Deadline".
Part 2, "Cures," probes such remedies as "Using F-I-N-I-S-H", "To-Do Lists That Work", "Learning to Say No", and more.
Part 3, "Additional Thoughts and a Conclusion", includes a chapter entitled "The Exception That Proves the Rule: When Failing to Finish is a Good Thing" as well as the chapter "Summing Up", with pivotal examples and information to help you finish everything you start.
A selected bibliography with a list of cited works, resources section, and appendix of useful supporting materials complete this time-saving book that will help you to get more done.
How to Finish Everything You Start is based on Dr. Yager's 3+ decades of research on time management plus new interviews and surveys focusing on finishing with more than 242 men and women from throughout the United States and internationally.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Communication should be clear and concise, and we should get to the point quickly. The problem is we don’t always know how to do this. What does it mean to be concise? How can a complex topic be summarized in just a few lines? This award-winning book is a step-by-step guide for clear, concise communication in everyday work conversations. Being concise is not about trying to condense all the information into 60 seconds. It is about having clear intent, talking about one topic at a time, and focusing on solutions instead of dwelling on problems.

We’re never going to be able to prevent people from saying or doing things that hurt our feelings. We will always have opportunities to get offended. But if we do things God’s way, we can choose to save ourselves a lot of misery and hardship. This doesn’t mean we allow people to abuse us. No, there is a time for confronting people and dealing with situations. However, the Bible commands us to love our enemies and forgive those who have wronged us, even when it feels impossible.

What we did learn a lot about was Ms Yager - the books she's written, her career, her personal struggles, how brilliant she is, etc. We also learned how to tell if we have problems finishing things - she points out our short comings NUMEROUS times. Dear Ms Yager - if we bought the book....we KNOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM. We didn't come to you for a diagnosis.
This whole book feels like it was written for one reason - to write a book. Ms Jager isn't a productivity expert. She's an academic (as we are told often). She was either given this as an assignment by her publishing house or she decided she needed to write a book and drew the topic out of a hat. This is NOT a helpful book.
One of the parts that really stuck with me was when she said that she sat down and listed all her "to-dos" and can up with 17 unfinished items and was shocked that she had that many? 17? Seriously? This is a woman that does not live in the real world. I get 17 new things every day here in the real world.
This book might work ok in the academic world or for some new writers (for whom she commits and entire chapter) but this book will not help you at all if you live and work in the business world.
I had trouble finishing it ;-)

The book tackled the nuances and causalities of overcoming procrastination, time management issues, and distractions that have unknowingly plagued me for years. This book is an outstanding tool for all of us who welcome suggestions on how to get more done by finishing what we've started, and even when it's okay to not finish but for the right reasons!
Perfect finishing tool
