 Learn how to get the most out of your 24 hour day. July 13, 2008
The one thing that we all have but use differently is the 24 hour day. No one gets more than 24 hours in a day. The people in control are the people that know how to effectively manage the 24 hours in a day. No one can save time. We can only use time. The ones that use time wisely get more done and are more successful.
Eye-Opening June 21, 2008
Buy this book for any recent college graduate you know and make sure they read it.
This is a fantastic study in time management that will be valuable to you no matter what age you are. His tips strategies and activities will force you to take a mental inventory, and commit them to paper, so that you can literally "Get Control of Your Time and Life." As a recent college graduate, it has opened my eyes early in my professional work experience so that I can avoid getting into a rut and being overloaded with work, family, and friends.
His advice is extremely practical and something that can be done easily by everyone nowadays. It is in some cases redundant, because you feel like you do some of these things anyway, but the manner in which he presents them allows you to fully understand the concept. This is a quick and fantastic read that you will recommend to family and friends throughout your days. It is interactive, well written and genuinely eye-opening.

Everything you do and achieve is dependent on how you manage your time.
Is what you are doing now the best use of your time?
Are you focusing on what is most important to you?
If not, then why aren't you focusing on doing what needs to get done.?
If you were to create a top 10 list of life's essential books or maybe a list of say the best dozen guide to life books, two of them should be about how to manage your time. Because all that you ever do and achieve in your life will depend on how you manage and use your time.
Put this one and Dan Kennedy's no BS time management book, No B.S. Time Management for Entrepreneurs (No B.S. Series) on your required reading list.
Learn to stop procrastinating and get rid of people that prevent you from focusing on what is important.
Become much more proficient at getting things accomplished.
This little book will show you how to prioritize things and focus on the things that matter most.
You only have a limited amount of time. Make the most of it and use it on stuff that matters to you.

How to Get Control of Your Time and Your Life (Signet)
This is very simple and yet practical. The purpose of this was to use in coaching an employee but it is serving me well also. It's good reminders, and clarification between goals and activities and the need for continuous prioritization is not brand new but logical and practical enough to work for anyone.

I bought one each for two family members, daughter and brother, with the hope this book would help their 'focus'. Each is in a fast paced, time consuming job which leaves precious little personal time. This book could help, but as you may have guessed, neither has read the book even though I gave it to each one 5 months ago. "You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink".
