Work smarter not harder
Introduction
I became interested in time management back in 2007, after reading David Allen’s book, Getting Things Done. By reading his book, a new world opened and I have been a student of time management and personal productivity ever since. After reading plenty of other productivity material from books and blogs, I finally started applying the strategies I had learned to my personal life. Later I took this knowledge to my work days too. Some of the advice worked fine (checking e-mail less was one of those things), while some other tricks increased my stress levels more than they actually helped me (namely, the 2- minute rule). It’s now 2015 and I have learned a lot more about time management. Not only do I write books about it, but I also train companies about it from time to time.
This book contains the best productivity strategies I have learned over the past few years. No matter if you are working from home or in a cubicle, you can apply these strategies to your work day and take your performance to another level. I’m always willing to learn more about new ways to keep your productivity levels up.
