Many helpful tactics

Easy to apply premise and chock-full of helpful tactics for you to try to make more time for what's important to you, block distractions and maintain your energy.

The audiobook performance was a lot of fun, and matches the ambience of the physical book (which contains fun cartoons) well. A pleasure to listen to.

Great book to bounce ideas

Loved it and great ideas. Although imo the food and exercise part would be better if it were presented with a more detailed scientific study/literature.

A Game-Changing Recipe for Productivity

Make Time by Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky is an awe-inspiring book that has profoundly impacted my life. This book is a game-changer when it comes to improving productivity, reducing distractions, and reclaiming time in your life.

The authors present a recipe for productivity that is both practical and customizable. They offer multiple solutions and tricks, allowing you to choose and implement what works best for you. Whether it's creating a daily highlight, designing your day, or optimizing your energy levels, Make Time provides actionable strategies that can be tailored to fit your lifestyle and goals.

What sets this book apart is its approachable and engaging style. Knapp and Zeratsky use their experiences at Google and beyond to illustrate how small changes can lead to significant improvements in daily focus and effectiveness.

Make Time isn't just about managing your time better; it's about making deliberate choices to prioritize what matters most to you. It encourages readers to take control of their schedules and carve out moments for meaningful activities and personal growth.

I can't recommend Make Time enough to anyone looking to enhance their productivity and live a more intentional life. Whether you're a busy professional, entrepreneur, or student, this book offers valuable insights and practical techniques that can transform how you approach each day.

Straightforward and clear steps

I love how the authors make it clear that they are showing things that can work but you don’t have to do everything and you don’t have to do it all at once. This is less overwhelming. I’m applying a few because I really just want to improve my life
