Recommendation

If B. Eugene Griessman wanted a good subtitle for this book of time-saving tactics, he could use, "Time waits for no one." He offers many common-sense pointers on how to avoid wasting your time - and how to keep others from wasting it, too. It’s eye-opening to realize and calculate the value and importance of every hour, even your leisure time. People in all walks of life - students, stay-at-home parents, business leaders, teachers, self-employed workers - can glean ideas for using time effectively from this book. If you are a procrastinator, this book will encourage you to "do it now." While some of the suggestions here may seem too simplistic to those who already employ some time-management tactics, getabstract.com recommends this book for inveterate - if inadvertent - time-wasters. You know who you are.

Take-Aways

  • Understand and appreciate that your time is precious and has value.
  • Establish priorities and determine which of them should become top priorities.
  • Staying organized, pacing yourself, planning ahead, anticipating and heading off problems and balancing all aspects of your life are time-saving techniques.
