Recommendation

From your morning commute to your late-afternoon coffee break, your daily travel through time may be filled with costly detours and countless obstacles. Are your days typically disrupted by disorganization and delays? Do you spin your wheels on the dirt paths of life? Fortunately, Brian Tracy offers a concise map around the daily roadblocks. His text provides a toolbox of effective time management techniques, including New Age-style visualizations (”mental rehearsals”) to concrete 15-minute planning blocks.

Summary

The Waltz of Time

Don’t squander time. Your productivity and happiness at home and work depend on a carefully choreographed dance with time. The failure to synchronize your inner clock with real-time deadlines will derail your career, deplete your income and endlessly delay your personal satisfaction. Pick up the beat by reprogramming your mind for success. Positive self-talk ("I will be on time; I will be on time") and nightly mental rehearsals are effective training tools. Pick an area of your life and immediately - here and now - resolve to improve your time management skills in that realm.

Setting Your Life’s Agenda

Outline your key goals with clarity. Write down your 10 most important objectives for the next year. Incorporate your professional and personal aspirations. Study the list and select your chief aspiration. Create a firm deadline for realizing it.

Next, write an action plan filled with intermediate steps toward that goal. List potential obstacles and possible solutions. Start now and make a commitment to take one action, however small, to move you closer to the goal line. Don’t surrender the stage. This is your life, not a rehearsal.
