Description

Developed as an antidote to the fast-paced, always-connected culture of Silicon Valley, our 2018 book Make Time was a rallying cry for a new class of professionals. I can say that the book was easy to read and kind of organized but it did not add much to my knowledge.

Exhausted by the Busy Bandwagon, we’re easily enticed into plunging into the Infinity Pools and passively soaking up their content. I'm not convinced at all that someone who gathered berries in the morning couldn't keep any berries to eat throughout the day, or even the next day.This is a useful, but superficial book from the authors of Sprint: How to Solve Big Problems and Test New Ideas in Just Five Days. With tips and tricks to help you change your life, it's time to stop daydreaming about projects and activities that you'll get to 'someday', and start that someday today.

Nobody ever looked at an empty calendar and said, 'the best way to spend this time is to cram it full of random meetings! Can you imagine going out to gather berries or hunt for buffalo every morning, noon, and evening, plus any time in between when your blood sugar started to feel low? By focusing on the things that matter most to you, Make Time presents a four-step process for creating more time in your life. I look forward to using some of the suggested tactics in 2019, and I might want to listen to this book again.

They are winged creatures whose bewitching voices lured sailors into crashing into the rocks from which they sang. JZ uses this simple Braun alarm clock, and Jake prefers this Philips model that simulates the sunrise. The authors are designers by training, and they clearly understand how to keep the path smooth so that their users will be far more likely to actually use their product.

In the office, every meeting defaults to thirty or sixty minutes even if the business at hand actually requires only a quick chat. The first step is to "Highlight," or identify the most significant activities that you want to focus on.But for me, this has already positively changed the way I plan and structure my day to make time for what I actually want to accomplish. If you don’t want to get stuck in an Infinity Pool of distraction, like Facebook or Twitter, couldn’t you just refrain from entering the pool in the first place? Please do not come to the site if you have not got an appointment as you will not be granted access. These were inspired by design sprint principles (an innovation approach invented by Jake), the authors’ personal experiments and feedback from readers who tried the approach. They spent 18 months traveling in Central America aboard their sailboat Pineapple before moving to Milwaukee in 2019.

g The Wall Street Journal, TIME, Harvard Business Review, Wired), spoke at various events and gave guest lectures several universities. I'm not rating it 5 stars because I don't consider the book to be life-changing or providing any new advice, but I still think it is a solid read with a personable writing style and enjoyed the framework that the authors outlined, which I plan on referencing.John’s writing has been published by The Wall Street Journal, TIME, Harvard Business Review, Wired, Fast Company, and many other publications. An important feature here would be instead of a long term commitment you look at daily improvements or quantifiable tasks.
