Productivity is not just everybody else’s problem, it’s your problem…
…and it’s also my problem.
I live in a world where I have multiple choices of things to do every day, and sometimes the choices are so overwhelming that I do nothing. I admit it.
On the other hand, I wrote this book, and you didn’t.

My fight – your fight – is for time and against time. Twenty-four hours – that’s what you and I have in common. USE of time is how we differ.
