Loved it!

A lot of it was about being in the office but I could take that and flip it into other things. Overall I really enjoyed it and learned a lot.

Life Changing

Common sense, yet uncommon practice. I applied the lessons as I was reading, and I’m way more effective with less stress. Buy this book and apply the lessons.

powerful

Very familiar way to present the examples to be applied in the every day life. Mind changing and cheerful piece of advice. Worth reading.

Pleasantly surprised

I was initially a bit hesitant with this book as the whole ninja thing is, well, corny. But it actually had quite a few good ideas and took a new approach to time management that is much more flexible, and thus for me more useful than rigid organization ideas I’d found in previous books. Well worth the listen in my opinion. Good enough that I may go back and listen again.

Helpful guide to becoming productive

A lot of this is common sense. However, all the tips help you take what you (may) know and apply it to be more productive. This book helped me recognize my excuses and consolidate all the things I knew I should be doing into a practical routine.

Great ideas from a subject matter expert!

Great ideas from a subject matter expert! However, the format is better suited for written material rather than audio.

Great Thoughts

Alcott states these are common sense points that no one does. I believe he is correct. Take the bags and such out of workday, fill it with productivity and see more things getting done.
Thanks for these words and thoughts!

One of the most practical books ever

This book is great! I have listened to it two times now. It is practical, actionable and fun to listen to. Graham Alcott fully gets the pressures of the modern work world. He gives practical solutions and a great framework for operating . Highly recommend!
