If you're the sort of person who in always running late, always rushing to meet deadlines, always in a hurry and always exhausted at the end of the day, then this is the book that is going to help you feel as though you have more than a mere 24-hours a day. This book takes you through effective time-management techniques in a manner that is both light-hearted and easy-to-understand. Brett attempts to help the reader understand the energy peaks and troughs in the day, and how to work with it, and not against it. He also addresses practical issues that drain our time issues such as delegation, saying no, the slew of e-mails as well as how to combat the temptation of procrastination. He shows us how to balance both our personal and work lives. He resolutely believes that people do not need more working hours, rather, they need less and that this is achievable through effective management of time. If you want to streamline your day, be the most productive worker in your office, impress your boss, and at the same time have the time for the other more interesting bits in life, then this is the book that will make your dream a reality. You CAN have your cake and eat it too.
